scan

Hi, Trying to figure out a frustrating problem with my FT-857D. I am trying to do VFO scanning in 2m (144-148MHz) band. SQL/RF dial is set to SQL, the mode is FM, and TON (button A) in MFe is set to blank (ie, no tone encoding). However, when I scan, the scan does not stop even if it picks up a...

I've search the forums multiple ways before typing this. I have an XTS2500 VHF and it seems that at the end of certain transmissions or noise thresholds the audio clips off and it takes approximately three seconds before the audio comes back through. Am I missing some audio setting that stops...

I have a "hybrid" radio system due to budget restrictions. Currently I have 21 Motorola cp-200's using Analog frequencies inside my buildings. We recently upgraded to a small digital system (17 Motorola XPR-6550 UHF radios) that use an off site repeater supplied by my vendor (we rent airtime)...

Questions about how scanning works on VX-180. I have two channels in my scan list. Both have 2-tone alert programmed, and both channels alert with the tones. Many times I'm away from the radio, and come back to find it displaying -CALLED- as it should. My questions are... 1. When it's...

After an exhausting search (to no avail), for a schematic to make a bypass plug for an Icom F121 I decided to figure it out for myself. I wanted to basically use the radio as a scanner without the possibility of it being able to transmit as it is sharing a receive antenna with other receivers...

Hi, I'm looking to purchase a scanner than can listen in on DCFD. I know it has to be a trunking scanner, but beyond that not much...any suggestions?

Just recently my TK-290 has given up the ability to scan. I even tried reassigning a new key & it still would not come up. Is this a common issue with this radio?

Good Day Masters! I would like to ask some information and proper method in programming SCAN in ASTRO Spectra using ASTRO SPECTRA CPS. Need to program all my channels and talkback to any channel. Instead of choosing to every channel, this thing will help us a lot in monitoring. Please help...

I purchased a Wouxun KG-UV6X and it works fine. I can not find any information on how to toggle any memory channels from scan to not to scan using the keys or functions in the field. How can I go from Memory to VFO in order to program a channel in the field and save it to memory. The...

So I was setting up my scanner, after viewing some tutorials online. I made two systems. The first was a trunked system , and the second was a conventional. On both, I did not set quick keys, etc. After programming it started scanning: The first system, then the second system, and then...

I have just received my Moto GP338 from ebay and it works quite well. I'm using it to monitor a few of my local fire/ems channels and use MURS. My question for those of you with more programming experience than myself is: How can I set it up so that if I select say channel 6 (1-5 is MURS and...

Hi, Just finished programming my APX7000 radio. Setup 5 zones, and 2 scan lists. I programmed my top orange button to scan, however when I push it, it just beeps like an programmed key and does nothing. Also, if I try to add the scan menu items, it wont show up after writing to the radio. I...

I have passed my ASC-066 exam. And I want to scan the exam report to Killtest, who helped me pass the exam as a feedback. However, when I scanned it, it was failed, how can I do now?

Anyone know how to set up the HT750 to automatically start scanning upon powering up the radio? Right now the radio will not even start scanning when the scan feature is left on when turning the power off. Let me know what you think, Thanks, Brandon K7KLA

Having an issue with my new HP-1. After power up it locks onto a frequency (there is no talking) and will not scan, it just stays on that channel. I have checked the squelch, and even cleared all programming and started fresh, still the same result. Anybody have any ideas here... Thank you, Dan.
