The following was sent to the DB for a submission. Would one of you guys that use digital scanners please help this guy out:
I have a major problem and need help for Texas DPS, P-25 channels. I have 2 Uniden BCD996T scanners, a BCD396T, and a Pro-96 and Pro-2096, all of which are APCO-25 capable. I have NO problems decoding or scanning ANY other APCO-25 systems around Texas, other than Texas DPS. I've even tried downloading ALL the APCO-25 sites for Texas DPS at once through RadioReference and also manually. Nothing! Through RadioReference, (compared to manually entering them), they will at least stop on a active channel, but I only get a carrier-type "buzzing" signal, with no decoding of voice. The Pro's won't even stop on a active channel, when loaded through RadioReference. I can monitor them, (sometimes), by stopping the scan mode, and going to the "Hold" mode, and monitoring a desired channel.
Please let me know if I'm doing something wrong, or does Texas DPS have something new that's built into their system whereby I/we are unable to monitor them? Is anyone else in Texas having this problem with DPS? Thanks for ANY help, or information anyone can give me.
