    Should I pay to upgrade to have access to NXDN? Military base?

    I’m a super casual who has a Uniden BCD436HP. Previously I was in Fayetteville, NC and had great times listening to the local police and fire. I just enter my zip code, preferred service types and I was set. Now near Enterprise, Alabama and I hear NOTHING! It is totally dead and boring. Some...

    Hello! A less tech-savvy family member recently purchased a Uniden BCD436HP and asked me to set it up since I am better with technology. I am not familiar with scanners and I am having one hell of a time setting it up for the first time. I hate having to use AI, but I have been using ChatGPT to...

    BCD436HP/BCD536HP: BCD436HP GPS on but not updating location

    I have recently found that when connecting my BCD436HP to the BC-SGPS kit via the Uniden connector, that while GPS is displayed on the screen, my location is not being updated. I have ensured that location control is set to on, and serial port is set to 9600. With my Indiana-based favorite...

    Volusia county EDACS Deland PD radio silent lately?

    I have a BCD436HP and the last few days I’ve heard nothing but silence for Deland PD even though I’ve seen active calls being recorded on the Volusia County Sheriffs Office. Anyone else notice this?

    Computer not recognizing radio audio input

    Hi all. I'm new to radio recording and doing some work on it for a professor of mine. I'm using a Uniden BCD436HP Radio. I've downloaded ProScan and been able to get my radio connected to it such that the radio communicates with the program. However, the ultimate goal of this project is...

    San Francisco PD on the BCD436HP

    I have been having issues with the SFPD odd channels on my uniden BCD436HP. It is Chrystal clear sometimes but most of the time while in San Francisco, I either pick up nothing or extremely scratchy unreadable traffic. Any idea why?

    Cheap amazon antenna works pretty good

    Nothing super scientific here, but I was at a stop light and picked up the school radio from a good distance away with close call. I heard 2-3 people talking, so I have to assume they weren't all close. Assuming they have some high output radios. 464.035 was the frequency. Didn't find it on...

    BCD436HP/BCD536HP: Uniden BCD436HP TGID programming issue

    I have a uniden BCD436HP, and using the zip services does not pull up the frequencies needed, so naturally I decided to program them myself. I made a new favorites list, and entered a conventional frequency, and it worked fine. I then tried to enter a P25 single frequency, and when I tried to...

    UCA TG 18496, Event 3, Salt Lake County Activity on 436hp but not the TRX-1

    More of a technical question re the 436 vs TRX but posting on the Utah forum since you all are more likely to be familiar with the digital trunking systems used by the UCA. The 436 and TRX both have the same UCA sites and talk groups loaded and all in all seem to be on par with each other...

    I apologize i have read many threads but I’m having difficulty figuring out if I’m misunderstanding something or just doing it wrong.

    BCD436HP vs TRX-1: Which is better at receiving simulcast

    Before I make my final decision, what one gets simulcast a bit better on average? Both phase 1 and phase 2. EDIT: besides the sds100 guys, i'll get a pager before I get the SDS radios anyways.

    BCD325P2 vs BCD996P2 on simulcast

    Before you say anything; yes, I know they both are not made for simulcast but let me tell you. I recently bought the 325 and tried it out and I didn't have the best time on simulcast in my area but it worked! I atleast heard 70-75% of the conversation, until I traveled a bit with it and it...
