Just wondering on the 396 where if you want to turn down the volume you will show 1-10 I think. I didn't like that 1 was loud still to me for earpiece. I was wondering if the 396xt has the same volume button function?

UPMan: The numbers all go to fifteen. Look, right across the board, fifteen, fifteen, fifteen, and...
Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most scanners go up to ten?
UPMan: Exactly.
Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?
UPMan: Well, it's five louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be listening at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your scanner. Where can you go from there? Where?
Marty DiBergi: I don't know.
UPMan: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
Marty DiBergi: Put it up to fifteen.
UPMan: Fifteen. Exactly. Five louder.
Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?
UPMan: [pause] These go to fifteen.
