bcd536hp

This might be a stupid question, but I cannot seem to find the answer in the manual. How can I add a single system from the full data base to a favorites list? It seems that only option is to transfer the complete data base. BTW, I understand how to do this using the Sentinel software, but I...

I am considering upgrading to the Uniden BCD536HP and would like to know how well it is working in the Toronto-Barrie area. Can you enter the Canadian mail codes or just American zip codes to set it up for scanning your area ? Thanks Russ

Is there a way to broadcast AlphaTags in ScannerCast using a Uniden BCD536HP?? I've downloaded the serial port files, rebooted my computer, even set the scanner in serial mode & set the Tag setting at the 996XT choice, even saw something about Windows Device Manager up checking the UBS root hub...

When using 3-Line Display mode it shows a bigger don't in the pic I've attached... However when you enable Display Unit ID's & 3-line mode the display text on the bottom gets smaller due to the TalkGroup ID# & Service Type. Is there any way to get rid of the TalkGroup ID & Service Type so the...

I am wanting to use a client to access the ARC536 control/logging feature over a network. I am using the BCD436HP, so direct WiFi control is not going to be an option. Does anybody know if this software is capable of doing this? I am so used to Don Starr's Win500 and the protocols behind it, but...

Is this the weird noise coming from the speaker that everyone is complaining about? It occurs before and after a transmission. Sounds like 2-3 quiet beeps.. Here is a link to the video. Listen closely... IMG 4192 - YouTube

If my new BCD536HP scanner has been unused for a few days, I am forced to enter the time and date at boot time. Since I typically operate my radios on weekends, the 536 sits unused for several days in a row. Is this a known bug or is it a user issue?

I've noticed that when I have Trunking Discovery Mode setup on the local P25 system, and I compare it to the database, I see hits, but no audio is recorded. When I set the radio not to compare to the database, it is a crap shoot. Sometimes I will see a hit, with the UID/TGID and a WAV file...

Two things; 1) I don"t seem to be able to figure out what additional info I need to put into the favorites to recieve all of the Sheriff Office transmittions, I am missing some. Is there a common mistake I am makeing? I will play with it some more and red the manual again, and whatch yu...

The memory card in my BCD536HP is corrupt. I can read from it but can no longer write to it. I am also unable to format it to restore the original files. I know it is the memory card because I programmed a new one and it works OK in the radio. Does anyone know if this is covered under the...

I have two BCD536HP radios and one of them when I set the GPS serial baud rate to 115,200 bps it will not retain that setting when I power cycle the radio. It keeps defaulting back to 4800 bps. The other radio holds the setting. Both radios have the same firmware. Also, I have sentinel...

Hello all... Does anybody know where I can buy a pre-made Discriminator Tap or something for my BCD536HP?? I'm not good with soldiering & I'd hate to screw up and melt the wrong contact or the circuit board... Is there any places online that sell pre-made Taps? I could have sworn I've seen...

Hello, Hope this is in the correct forum location, if not, please move. What I want to do is "discover" the P25 System using my 536HP and not program it from the database or sentinel. The system is: Cortland County Public Safety On that page it says it is a Simulcast site using the following...

Here is a free Excel spreadsheet that will list, rename, and sort WAV files generated by the BCD436/536HP scanners. It will reorganize the files from the folders of 100 sequential recordings into folders based on System and Department (or Site), and it will add the TG and UID (or Frequency and...

Has anyone gotten Unitrunker to work with a BCDx36HP for a control? I had it working for a voice, but not control. Thanks

I just received back two radios with the repaired headphone jacks. That problem is fixed but I have discovered a possible problem with the USB jack on both radios. I did not notice this on the radios that I original returned for repair however they may have exhibited the problem but I just...

I just purchased the BCD536HP scanner and used the Uniden Sentinel software to program it. I live in Springfield, MO, and all local and county law enforcement are working fine,but no activity for MO state Highway Patrol at all. I know it's active because I can hear it on Broadcastify, and it's...

I just got the BCD536HP and it is my first digital scanner. One of the features on this scanner is an AGC option, which I understood to smooth out the difference of volume on channels so you don't have loud channels and soft channels. I've searched all the menus trying to find how to turn this...

I understand the Uniden Siren app is not released yet. I'm wondering if there is any way to listen to the scanner via wifi simply by connecting to it and pointing a browser to a particular ip address/port? I feel like this should be obvious but it is alluding me at this point.

First off forgive my stupidity. First post on RR. This is the first scanner I have purchased in over 15yrs. Last scanner purchased was a uniden handheld sportcat. Let me tell you, things have changed a bunch. I am basically lost. It's hard to believe they have changed that much. I have been...
