    Hi, I just received my BCD436HP today, and have spent all afternoon playing with it. I think i have finally gotten close to getting it set up, but I'm now stuck on two last items. 1.

    BCD436HP add a talkgroup

    I can't figure out how to add a talk group to an existing p25 multicast system. Much of the system was loaded up in the radio through the Home Patrol feature, but a handful of talk groups are missing. I have the talk group ID's, but I do not see an option to add new talk groups in the sentinel...

    Thinking of buying the BCD436HP upgrade, but I have one question.

    BC346HP Agency Hold on EDACS Bizarre Behavior

    I don't know if this behavior occurred prior to the 1.10.02 firmware, but when I now hold on an agency on a local EDACS system (eg. 04-xxx), I get absolutely no information about what TG the radio is following. In fact, the department and channel portions of the display do not display anything...

    BCD436HP/BCD536HP: Is there a bug reporting location?

    So where do we submit bugs reports to Uniden? The Uniden website is an absolute, pathetic mess, at least in the Support area. Most of the links haven't worked in months/years. Just to find a darn manual or file is a chore. Uniden seems to have moved over here to take care of support. So where do...

    BCD436HP/BCD536HP: GPS not working correctly

    Recently I took a trip through 2 states and about 7 counties and multiple towns. I had my range turned down pretty low, as to only monitor the jurisdictions I am traveling through.

    Failing to Receive VHF Trunk System

    I am attempting to scan the Maine State Communications Network (MSCommNet, link to RRDB below:), and experiencing an odd phenomenon. A GRE scanner decodes and receives the system fine.

    Having just purchased a BCD436HP, and anticipating buying a BCD536HP sometime later, I believe that I want the ARC536 software for building and managing favorite lists. The following warning on BuTel's website raises several questions for me: "Important Information: because of issues with the...
