Week old 436 started cutting out audio every 5-6 seconds, almost like priority mode is on. Checked both priority mode and Close Call are off.

Are you doing location control scanning?
If so, perhaps your 436 has "locked out" some sites due to range, even though you could hear them if location control was off.
Or is it a case of you are "getting" a site, but the signal strength is lower on the the 436 than you other scanner? If that's the case, it's possible the attenuator for the site is set to On.
Just thinking of some possibilities, which could be remote possiblities.
Range may still come into play even if you are scanning Favorites Lists only. If you have Location Control to ON in your Favorites Lists, the scanner will lock out distant sites.
If Location Control is On for your Favorites Lists, try different Range values.
What does "GCRCN" mean? I tried looking up your county to see if anything in the DB jumped out at me, but was having trouble figuring that out.
If you are still receiving no transmissions at all, and you are receiving the system/sites as indicated by some bars on the signal strength meter, the following might be issues:
1. Departments avoided
2. Channels avoided
3. Service types not selected as appropriate
4. Department Quick keys not enabled (something done in Sentinel) or the department quick keys may be turned off.
All the above seem correct.
Can you export the applicable Favorites List to an HPE file, zip it and post it here to review?
