This problem stumped the tech at Uniden HELP!
The tech at Uniden actually suggested posting this problem here on RR!!!!!
The rig works great except on our 800 Mhz Motorola Type II SmartZone system which uses both Analog and APCO-25 Common Air Interface, Subisd A42E.
The rig indicates 4-5 bars of signal for approx. 4.5 seconds during which any communications in the 800 system is perfect copy. Then the signal strength bars disappear for approx. 1.5 seconds. All other display data remains on the screen normally. The above indications are in the scan-hold mode. I also selected the control channel while the receiver appeared down and listened to the control channel data cycle along with the signal strength indicator at the same time rates detailed above. When in scan mode and the signal goes down, the scanner will wait the selected delay time then proceed to the other systems as expected. Of course, I am missing 2/3's of the conversation on the 800 system which ain't worth a D---! The other systems are conventional and work without a flaw!
Anyone that can figure this one out can get a job helping the tech at the Uniden help desk!
