It looks like it might take a couple of weeks before some of us get the hang of these new scanners. So you'll be seeing a lot of problems, most of them are user mistakes. In my case the 436 is a new learning experience, I'm old school and used to manually setting up scan lists on analog scanners. The toughest one to date was my Optocom scanner that I was still using for some trunked systems. I've already had the "nothing to scan" issue and the squelch tail issue on the 436. The nothing to scan was a configuration error and I scrolled through the menu to find the solution and also enabled the service types I wanted to hear. Updating the firmware from the factory one took care of the squelch tail issue I had and I've not seen the sensitivity issue either. The backlight going out while trying to set it up had me pulling my hair out until I went into display settings and changed the backlight to infinite.
I'm very happy with my purchase so far and know hands on is the only way to improve the experience.
So, are we having fun yet?
