I just got the 436. I don't even have any batteries with me, but I plugged in the USB and got the unit powered up.
First problem: How do I get the Backlight to say on infinitely ?
I have looked over the manual and must say, it's a mess. I see a section about the backlight but I can't make any sense of it. I'm confused about exactly which buttons to push and when to get the backlight to remain on.
Second: I think I read something on how to set up a "Favorites" list to listen to only the systems you want.... but I can't locate it in a search. Can someone point me to that particular thread ?
So far, I am picking some simulcast transmission that the 106 isn't. But I am very unimpressed with the angle of view of the display. I have to be looking directly at it from the front to read the display. But I usually have my scanner on a table or desk next to me and am looking down slightly.
With that angle, I cannot read the display at all.
Thanks All.
