Thanks to the help I received here I upgraded the firmware and re-banding for my BCD996T. Working fine again, thanks guys.
Now trying to do the same with my BC796D. I uploaded the latest Uniden firmware version and the Uniden VUP software said is was succesful. With the ARC250 software I downloaded and installed necessary info from this RR database for King County Public Safety (same as I did for the BCD996T) The 796 stops on the control frequency. It shows it is scanning. A group key will flash on occasion but I hear absolutely nothing. Only have one site in the program and all sites and groups are unlocked. The control channel only is turned on.
I have gone through this procedure 3 times and still nothing.
I guess one of my questions is there a key sequence to read the current version of firmware in the radio?
And is there a key sequence to clear the radio of all programming (except firmware) so I can start from scratch again.?
