ws1080

Question for those with a WS1080 Scanner: If you leave fully charged (new 2000mAh eneloop or even 2450mAh LADA) batteries in your scanner and leave the power off how many days should you get before all battery life has depleated? I seem to only get a few days of battery life if I put new...

A short video showing the 2004 Pro96 besting the deaf WS1080. Unication G5 pager in the middle (sound off) because it's perfect and doesn't need comparing. The OLD, OLD Pro96 outperformed the WS1080 in 20 Counties while mobile in my STATE. It's what drove me to buy a Unication Pager for P25...

My WS1080 only has these folders on the SD card: CDAT LOG REC Is there a way to get all the other folders mentioned in the manual back on the card so I can use the scanner again? (like BTMP, DB, MTMP, STMP, etc) Somehow I managed to delete those today and can't use the scanner. Thanks, Mike

Has anyone with this scanner had the com port fail? Used to be anytime I plugged in my 668 to the computer the led light on the scanner would stay on all the time, It was programed to do that under settings. Now when I plug in the scanner to the computer the scanner led never comes on and when I...

Does anybody have any tips for tinting the displays on a WS1080/95? I use them in my car a lot and even with the brightness down all the way, they can be a little bright when driving at night and I was hoping to color them red.

Had my 668 Updated to the Ws1080 through whistler. Worked fine for a week or so and now my menu button does not work. Anyone else had this problem or is it just me. I did a reformat and it still does not work. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm having a little trouble fully understanding how the DSPLevelAdapt setting works on Whistler's PSR-800 based scanners. The Easier to Read Pro-668/PSR800 Digital Scanner and EZ-Scan/iScan Software Manual states that it "controls how fast the DSP adjusts to varying P25 levels. Lower values...

Howdy, I am wondering if anyone has identified an efficient way to merge V-Scanner folders using EZ Scan (or any other software). I use different V-Scanner folders for different geographic areas. On my main, "home", V-Scanner folder, I have over a dozen scan lists for common channels like...

I attempted to install the EZ Scan software from my 668 I just bought. I read the manual but it was lacking detail. The manual simply said to follow the prompts. I ended up erasing the SD card after clicking the format box > clicking OK. The first error code was 5-00 on my 668 I check the E...

Excuse me for making this a long post. The zenith of my skills are having USB flash drives on my pc via socket multipliers. I cannot even turn on the old pc with these USB socket multipliers installed. My pc skills are very limited. I am embarrassed to admit, never even having seen a sd...

1. Will my old orange Radio Shack 20-047 USB Scanner Interface/PC Cable work with the Uniden BCD436HP and Whistler WS1080 scanner? If not please recommend one that will work with an old Windows Vista pc. I hope to first run the Sentinel program with the BCD436HP. Getting ready, I do not have...

I just wanted to post the fact that Whistler has given amazing tech support. It's a long story, but here's a shortened version: I managed to find a fault in the WS1080 firmware when decoding an EDACS signal during system patches. Granted this is quite obscure, but I do monitor a local...
