pro 651

I have successfully loaded data from RR to my PRO 651 and have the latest firmware for my radio BUT I am unable to successfully receive the new Santa Ana Fire and Costa Mesa Fire system. Can someone give me the right combination of frequencies and rebanding settings to make it work? I do not...

Not sure what I'm doing wrong, or if I'm using the correct terms so please bear with me. I'm in Sacramento, CA. I have everything set up and working fine except one object/channel/frequency won't play during scanning but it plays fine during manual mode. I have it selected for the same scan...

To make a inexpensive programming cable for the Pro-106, Pro-651, all you need is a CP2102 USB to TTL converter (about $5.00) and an old 1/8 inch stereo cable. Cp2102 TX goes to the "Ring" and the RX goes to the "Tip", ground to ground, 3 wires! Windows 10 recognized the CP2102 and installed...

Hello. Hopefully someone can help. I just got a Pro-651 scanner from Amazon and I don't hear any sounds at all. No audio on any frequency, no key beeps (yes it is on), no weather WX, no squelch static, nothing at all. I've tried with headphones and get no sound that way either. I'm not sure if...

Howdy y'all. I just picked up a Pro 651 from a pawn shop fairly cheap. I was excited to have another digital scanner. I live in El Paso, Texas. The city uses P25. I am able to listen on both my Pro 652 and my Uniden BCD396XT without any issues. I have programmed the Pro 651 manually, through...

Hello, I was hoping you could help me out with a scanner question... I have a radio shack pro-651 hand held scanner with the stock bnc "rubber duckie" antenna. The frequency range is 25 MHz - 1300 MHz. My problem is I live out in the country in rural NW Iowa, and the house I live in has...

HI everyone, I recently purchased a radio shack pro 651 along with the programming cable and I downloaded the trial version of the radio shack scanner software. I used the radio reference feature in the software to find the frequencies I wanted which consisted of Lowell PD and FD for now, just...

Hi, Just got a new pro-651 and looking for program it for san mateo county sheriff, medics and SPCA and radio reference programming is not correct. Anyone have the arc500 file they can send me in email or post? Or at least tell me whats up with that?.. thanks inadvance

when I turn on my scanner, THE RADIOSCHACK PRO- 651 , all I get is : " up BootVer:RF1.5 uP App Ver: NONE CP U SW Upgrade Wait for PC/ IF ". Because it is my understanding there is no firm ware updates for the pro 651, what do i do ?

Just an informational post, if anyone has a scanner with a worn out keypad that won't register key hits, here is a video on how to repair them. Pretty easy and cheap! This should also be the same type of procedure for pretty much any handheld scanner. https://youtu.be/tr6Rteb97ng

I just purchased the st-2 antenna and have mounted it to the roof of my house probably near 30 feet high. The st-2 works great on receiving conventional frequencies both close by and further away. The issue i have is that anything on the 800 band will not come in. At the best the scanner will...

Hopefully this doesn't sound like a stupid question, but is the pro 106 usb programming cable the same as the pro 651 usb cable? Online it seems they are segregated out and are sold differently, but they look the exact same. I have a programming cable for a pro 164 which is supposed to also work...

I got a pro 651 today and hoped to use it as a new radio for an existing feed. I plugged the existing feeds audio cable into the headphone jack of the pro651 and the audio is very very low @ any volume setting. I tried a pair of earphones on the 651 and the audio was fine. Does the pro651 have a...

Just purchased a PRO-651 and downloaded the Madison County Public Safety (Project 25) System directly from radioreference.com using WIN500 software. I rarely hear anything, but when I do it is so fragmented and sounds very "digital" for a lack of better terms. I understand this system has been...

Just purchased the PRO-651, a lot of the radio traffic cuts in and out for me, So I suspect the included antenna may be the problem. What is the best antenna for this model? Thanks for any advice!

Bought a 651 on EBay and there is no firmware installed. Called Radio shack a total of 15x and each time I mention the firmware is missing they hang up!!!! Really!!!! Offer me some help, tell me to send it in and they will fix it have some kind of customer support, NOPE just hang up. Any...

Just wanted to share, I just purchased a PRO 651 from blinq.com for $201.69 which seems to be a great deal. I also used coupon code blinqfirst115 and got an additional 10% off. My total was 181.52 with free shipping. Thought you guys might want to grab one while they last

I've seen both on Amazon. They look the same. But there has to be a difference.
