    GPS-aware app for Android

    I thought about this while driving back from New Mexico last week. All of the scanner apps I have used are GPS-aware in that they can offer nearby feeds. Is there an app that will automatically switch as you travel from jurisdiction to jurisdiction? That way you're always listening to the locals.

    TYT MD-390G won't lock onto GPS

    I've found posts about receiving another radio's GPS over DMR, but I can't find anything about displaying my own GPS location on the TYT MD-390G. As far as I can tell, it's all set up correctly. I have an ID from DMR-MARC, I've installed the code plug for my area. None of this should affect the...

    I have a Uniden Bearcat BCD996XT Scanner. I live in Jasper County, but work in Effingham County, which operates on VHF and Starcom. I programmed both county's VHF systems together in a system, and then the Newton tower as a system and Effingham tower as a system. I have the Mason tower...

    Challenge for Uniden

    Let's see if Uniden can shrink their next HP scanner to shirt pocket size. Impossible? I present as evidence the Kenwood TH-F6a tri-band transceiver -- just 2-5/16 x 3-7/16 x 1-3/16 inches, with a Li-ion battery that has nearly twice the wattage of the BCD436HP. Introduced about 15 years ago...

    GPS Attachment(s)

    I wasn't sure exactly where to post this one, so this forum seemed pretty safe. I'm looking for a GPS unit to connect to the BCD325P2. I want to use it in the car, so one with some sort of 12VDC lighter or USB power plug is preferred. The BC-GPSK looks sort of like it would work, but the DB9 is...

    Earthmate GPS

    Rather than paying $80 to 100 for a new GPS receiver, I am going to try using my Earthmate GPS. My question is this....The Earthmate has a USB connection, but the BCD996XT has a serial port. I am thinking of building a cable to connect the two, with a female serial port and a female USB. Looking...

    State Wide Radio GPS Ranges

    Just made an KML file for Google Earth showing all of the tower sites and the 25 mile range assigned to each. If you drive with a GPS attached to your scanner you will find lots of holes where nothing will scan. I'm currently working on revamping some of the sites so they will have larger...

    GPS Serial port won't retain setting

    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...

    436HP and GPS cabling

    I don't own the 436HP yet, but I do own a relic Garmin GPS V which has a NMEA output. I can buy various cables to fit the GPS. Some have serial connectors (PC connect), some are bare wire, etc. What would be the simplest cabling method to hook the two together?
