bcd996p2

So I scan Prince George's County, MD (Prince George's County Trunking System, Various, Maryland - Scanner Frequencies) police and I noticed that my BCD996P2 scanner randomly goes quiet and doesn't pick up transmissions. I check the online feed for the same exact same system (openmhz) and all...

My objective is to monitor via scanner, a number of VHF and UHF Ham beacons. The purpose of which is to identify band openings. I have two scanners, one the Uniden BCD996P2, the other a Radio Shack Pro-2044 - both have the same issue - - - they won't accept the frequency input, and instead...

Today I attempted to program my BCD996P2 using ProScan (16.9.0), but the upload fails and I am seeing this error in the log file: I selected the "Delete all" option before uploading the data, and the scanner appears to be empty after the failed upload, shoing "Nothing to scan." The same...

I noticed in my area there's quite a bit of frequencies that have the "telm" mode. Most of these Telemetry frequencies are hospital paging, or some sort of public works data like stormwater data. My question is, is there some sort of software i can use to decode these frequency's that I receive...

I am looking to get started with UID's on my BCD996P2. I use Freescan to record my scanner and have noticed that the "Unit ID" section has always been blank. I am pretty much starting from scratch. I understand what UID's are but I'm not sure how they work. Would I assign them manually or is...

Hey everyone, I hope each and every one of you are healthy and safe during these troublesome times. I live in Bell County and am trying to Monitor the Harlan County Public Safety NXDN trunking system. I have programmed it directly with radioreference import as I am a premium subcriber. I used...

So I am looking to get a scanner to use in my truck as a mobile scanner. I'm unfamiliar with scanners (I'm used to actual two-way radios), so I could use a little help. I'm a volunteer firefighter both at my home area and where I go to college at. I'm looking to set it up to where I have a...

My home office Shack is a work in progress. I will be eventually adding 2 more BCT15x's for non-trunked VHF/UHF. I'm running the first PC 2 Screens with 3 instances of ProScan, listening to 6 Broadcastify Feeds, an RTL1090-SDR Dongle-Virtual Radar. The second PC is an old Dell Win 7, old...

I need help programming the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority system (Motorola Type II Smartnet) for the BCD996P2 using FreeScan. The weirdest thing is that it was working a few weeks ago and I was messing around on my scanner a little and it just stopped working after that. The...

I'm new to scanning and have never had a scanner this advance. I have however had older models and understand a little bit about programming conventional and digital trunking. I've got majority of everything around me. But has been really hit and miss. I'm wondering is there something I'm...

I use ProScan to stream, and I'm finding that every couple of days, I'm having to disconnect the USB cable from the front of the radio, and connect it back, and re-select the port in ProScan. Has anyone else had this odd issue and can tell me what the permanent "fix" is?

Last summer I replaced my 2013 F-150 with a new 2019 F-150. Just like the last truck, this is my daily driver to the office job, but it does truck stuff too! I've been happy with Ford trucks and decided to get another F-150, but this time around I placed a factory order so I could get the...

I am using FreeScan to try to program this system: Prince George's County Trunking System, Various, Maryland - Scanner Frequencies (Prince George's County Trunking System) I went onto Reddit to r/policescanner and someone sent me a 996 file through gofile.io with the system set-up, but it...

This may come off as a silly question, but I am still learning about trunking and scanners, so please bear with me. I have a BCD996P2 and I plan on getting the NXDN upgrade from Uniden, so I can monitor the Harlan County Public Safety Trunked System. But, I notice it says "NXDN NEXEDGE 4800"...

Good Morning! So a friend and I are taking a road trip across the country soon and he asked me to program his scanner while he is working on other vehicle aspects. Sure! Why Not! Can't be that hard! - or so I thought. I have years of experience in CB radios, Alarms, Remote Starters, etc, so I...

I have enabled Priority Scan for two systems. One a P25 and the other a DMR. Enabled Priority for several TGID's and when turning on Priority Scan "No Channel" is displayed. Priority Scan does work however for conventional channels. Firmware version 1.08.01 - - - - Separate issue but maybe...

Just wanted to confirm that while holding on a channel there is no way to toggle Priority on/off for that channel. The only option is to go through the menu and edit the channel right?

I love PS and its features are more than useful. You can tell allot of work and love goes into it. I am rather new so I might be overlooking a setting. Here is my problem in short. Recordings. Folder names for conventional systems get named properly as the System name. Digital, trunked, DMR etc...

I just recently had an issue with my BCD996P2 scanner where it's not picking up a signal? It was working yesterday now today it has just stopped working and won't pick up a signal, is there a way to fix this ? *it's already updated to the latest firmware*

I just ordered a Uniden BCD996P2 and I'm using FreeSCAN + RadioReference Premium to get it programmed. I imported the system I want to monitor for my county using the RadioReference Import but it doesn't look like it imported the control channels under the site's trunk fq. list, is this normal...
