I guess I'm in the minority. I can now FINALLY monitor the notoriously simulcast plagued MARRS system in KC using the new 1.11.20 firmware in the 536.
Thanks Uniden!
Thanks Uniden!
I'm stuck with the 1.11.20 update. I don't know how to revert back to firmware before this one. People are saying they revert back, I've asked twice, but no one answers my question how to do it!
I've called customer service today, The Tech, Mariano, said I'm the first call about this issue. He has no answers, sending this up to corporate.
Oh boy! Where's Paul Opitz?

I agree with you ! My p25 system has improved 100% on the simulcast problems I was having.
Did have to do some tweaking though.

I had to set it manual level 8 and keep it NFM but it's actually working now.
Thank you. So basically I have to do that to every site I have programmed?You can do the Threshold Mode, Threshold Level as well as the Modulation adjustment in the field.
While scanning, press Menu> Choose channel to be modified from the favorite list> Choose edit system> Choose system> Edit System> Choose system > edit site> to Threshold Mode > change from auto to manual > back out next verify Level> Choose 8. Backout>
Change Modulation; Scanning choose Department Key> Choose Channel key > Press Function toggle channel key to NFM. > Use selector knob to toggle to each channel in the system > Blackout.
Hope I didn't miss a step, but this will get you on the correct path.

I'm a little puzzled by this post Dave....I answered your questions in post #12,#16 in post #19 you acknowledged my post in post #20 you
stated you were satisfied with the new firmware....so i think its a little unfair that you stated no one helped you.
Anyway I hope you get the help you need!

If you want the last firmware for the 536hp .17 here it is before the beta!
Here is how to install it...
1) Download and unzip
2) Connect your scanner to your PC and select Mass Storage mode.
3) Copy the appropriate firmware payload file into the "firmware" folder on your scanner.
4) Disconnect the USB cable. The firmware update should be applied.
Once you extract the file below follow the above instructions
Save the file on your hard drive for future use.

Tim,
Well I guess it's not to late in life to learn new tricks! I was able to revert back to http://info.uniden.com/twiki/pub/Par...P_V1_11_17.zip firmware on my 536's. I've learned my lesson, this old man will not make any further firmware updates unless I hear positive feedback from the members here on RR.
Scanners are back to normal.
Thanks again!
Why would you avoid future updates? It only takes a few moments to change them. It's literally one of the the easiest consumer devices to update. You might miss out on something good. I'm glad I tried 1.11.20. I can now use the radio again. Prior to it I got 0% decode on the system I wanted to hear. It's nearly perfect now.
As stated "will not make any further firmware updates unless I hear positive feedback from the members here on RR".
That's the problem with simulcast. For some it might be great. Unfortunately, for others such as yourself it might be worse. Had I listened to the majority in the .20 discussions I would have thought it was going to be a train wreck but it changed mine dramatically for the better. Anyway, I hope you get it all settled out and fixed up the way you want it someday. I know how frustrating it can be.
I guess I am also. I am getting decode on 99% of DMR simplex. I am getting 99% decode when monitoring the DMR repeater input freqs. Prior to this firmware I was getting at best 5% decode on them. The audio on the local trunked DMR system is better (although I never really thought it was bad). I am more than pleased with the progress made with this firmware.I guess I'm in the minority. I can now FINALLY monitor the notoriously simulcast plagued MARRS system in KC using the new 1.11.20 firmware in the 536.
Thanks Uniden!
