home patrol 1

Hi, been playing with HP-1 for a week and been saving the various talkgroups into specific favorite lists. First Question: Now, is there a way I can save each one of those favorite lists as a 'personality/profile' scanlist? So if I want local fire only, can I save a FIRE scanlist/profile? So if...

Hello, been a Uniden BC396T and BC396XT user for some time, but, just took the jump to a HP1. I programmed the BC396T and XT "by hand" without a computer. Can any Micro USB cable be used with the HP1, or does it have to be a 'special cable' with a chip as it appears I will need software to...

Hi all, I recently obtained a Home Patrol-1 and have been programming in frequencies via the Sentinel software without any issues. However, just recently I removed the cable from the side of the scanner and each time it reboots it wishes to run the scanner setup process. Have I missed...

I would like to transfer all my audio recordings from my HP-1 to the HP Sentinel. I thought that when I synced this during my updates that this would do this automatically. It's not doing this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,KF6OLC

I have had a radio shack discone lashed to my chimney for years, and before the rebanding it worked well - too well, I had to put an FM trap on to hear the riots last year. I'm using a Pro-197 on my desk, set to scan with a well shielded line to the roof. Then, the change happened... I have...

I just purchased a Home Patrol 1 scanner and am in the process of picking a mobile antenna out for it. My question is, is there a specification to compare when trying to find out which has a better distance to pick up signals? Sorry for my lack of better wording, I couldn't think of a better way...

I just purchased a Home Patrol 1 scanner to use in my vehicle and am curious for suggestions on the best antenna to use for a Phase 1 system as well as some older analog frequencies. I would prefer a NMO mount which I already have. Thanks for all advice.

I am just a rookie when it comes to police scanners. I have recently bought a uniden home patrol one. The symptom I have been having is that when I program a certain station into my scanner it never does anything. I have never downloaded sentenial, there for I have not updated the scanner since...

Hello, The frequency not changing is the only indication when the HP1 stops on a P25 control channel during a limit search. The audio is muted since it is trying to decode P25 Audio. The HP1 appears to only display the NAC when there is actual audio. The lack of feedback on P25 control...

Hello All, Just got my HomePatrol, and I love it. I can't figure out how to manually select which site to listen to in a multi-site Motorola trunked system. I get that it chooses sites based on location, but what if I want to override that and manually choose which sites it scans and which it...

Anybody using the hp1 in the New Orleans area? I would like to pick up the Kenner police Which is on the p25 system trucked. Is there a difference between homepatrol and Homepatrol-1?

Got my new Home Patrol last week and I'm finding some difficulties in operating it and the Sentinel software. First problem is I see no way of adding newly found frequencies when running in discovery mode to a favorites list. When using the Sentinel software and reviewing the discovery log, I...

I have been scanning with the BC200xlt and have just purchased the home patrol 1 and extreme upgrade. I purchased the garmin gps 18x PC to use while I drive cross country. I see that it needs special adapters to connect to home patrol 1. Does anyone have the information on those adapters and...

New to scanning, thought I'd share my first experiences thus far... I'm using FreeScan to program and even dug out my old Garmin Map 330 which was awesome this weekend on our trip to our Nation's Capital. I considered purchasing the gps puck but thought I'd locate old faithful and give it a...

When uploading a new database update to the HP1, are frequencies in your favorites also updated as well? Thanks
