I have a 996 I purchased about a year and a half ago. Everything has worked fine for the most part. But, recently I have had issues with my trunked Huntsville Al police dept. channels. Sometimes they work most of the time now they don't. All other channels work fine. So other than sending it to Uniden to be checked out I am not sure of what todo.

Make sure that you have all of the control channels programmed and that none of them are locked out. If they rotate the control channel, you may lose them if you accidentally locked out a control channel. Also, check to see if they have rebanded (assuming it's a Motorola system).

It is searching for the control channel most of the time. When it does find it, the signal seems strong so I dunno. I should have not purchased this scanner as my first lol.

Maybe I should upgrade the attenna?
