I have a:
1.) New Uniden BC3300XLT Bearcat scanner.
2.) New Radio Shack RG-58/U coaxial cable at 50 foot of length (although most of it is coiled to take up the excess cable).
3.) Diamond D-130J discone antenna clearing the highest peak of my house.
My reception on one certain channel that I like is sometimes acceptable and sometimes "choppy", as if you are turning the volume knob on and off at a very fast pace. It's as if someone has erased a recording at regular half-second intervals. My scanner display while this "chopping" is occurring displays what is normal for this Uniden BC3300XLT Bearcat: The frequency, the range, the scanning interval which is 12.5k and the frequency band which is FM. Whilst this "chopping" is occurring, no bar graph regarding reception is visible.
Can anyone please tell me what is causing this? Thank you.
