I've got a BC898t and a BCD396t, but I've always used the 396t far more. Lately I've been using the 898t more, and it seems like it's far less sensitive than the 396t. Is this common? I'm just wondering if I might have a setting screwed up or something.
I've spent quite a bit of time with both scanners scanning the same 800mhz trunking system, and it seems like the 396t just picks up substantially more traffic than the 898t does.
I usually use a rat shack 800mhz antenna on the 396t, but I've tried this experiment with the stock antenna(on both scanners) and results are the same. I use the ARC software to program both scanners.
Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated.
