For those who listen to the MOSWIN Troop F feed, I have received several reports of bad audio lately. I have isolated the problem as a bad front-end on the scanner itself (it's used, and wasn't taken care of by its' previous owner). I have bumped the audio levels on the PC to try to compensae...

Good evening, all! I recently purchased a used BCD-996XT from eBay, and it came with a 4-pin mini-USB programming cable. (It doesn't appear to be Uniden, and I'm almost positive it's not the USB-1 cable.) Since it came with the scanner, I presume the previous owner was using it. Anyhoo, it...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has found a fix for this because this is darn annoying. Every time I try to connect FreeScan to the scanner (with the proper settings) it all ways gives me 'Could not connect to scanner. Response received: -1'. Sometimes just out of the blue it will connect though...

My motherboard on my desktop does not have any serial ports at all, only USB 2 and USB 3 ports. So I read up that the scanner has a mini USB port on the front and a DB9 connecter that connects to the desktop? I'm at a loss here. So would something like this help me...

Here is my problem. I am using Freescan to program. I am trying to divide the NW Ohio Public Safety trunk into Police TG's EMS TG's and Fire TG's. When I upload the info to the scanner, I get police TG's in the EMS and FIRE. Frustrating. I have used the easy program page, but it doesn't seem...

Hi There, The UIEMS scanner on Broadcastify has been down for a few days now. It's no longer picking up any P25 traffic for J-COMM. It managed to pick up some UHF AirCare traffic (so it is still scanning). But nothing on Johnson County P25. Have they rebanded? Gone encrypted? New Control...

Hi guys, I've been scanning since the early 80s but this 996xt is by far the most intimidating piece of technology I've encountered in many years. The more I read the more my brain shuts down as I attempt to go down rabbit hole after rabbit hole. The radio itself is still not unpacked but I've...
