Yes, I can confirm that the BC796D has a birdie on 866.3000

A lot of you out there have a great deal of knowledge and I must say that I have learned so much from reading the posts. So my question is do you think that their will be a way that some one will be able to omit the birdie( Very Annoying ) ?

so far, the birdie is the birdie. the handhelds do not suffer from this problem a badly as the mobiles do. the only alternative is to find another zone and hope that your close enough to hear everything. bill simpson

Birdie is fixed on latest firmware update.

866.300 is a freq in the Washoe Co NV system that I've monitored on several occasions. While the scanner locks in on the birdie when listening conventionally, I've never had a problem listening to the trunked system because of it. If anything, I've had to adjust the squelch just a tad tighter than I normally would, but there are no hangups because of it.
