Close Call Keeps Tuning in FM Radio Stations - SDS200

[publicex]

Hello. I have a bit of an oddity and was wondering if any one had any incite on what's up or if they have had similar experiences.

I am runnign a SDS200 with 'Close Call' enabled and it keeps locking on to local FM radio stations. It will stay locked on until I choose AVOID. It will typically find one right away after turn on and then continue to lock on to others hours later and apart.

I have an external dipole mounted 35 feet up on roof. 50' RG6 run. I do not live near any towers or stations. Nearest being 15-20 miles out.

My only options is to turn off close call (don't want to) or keep hitting AVOID every so often.

Any thoughts why this might be occurring? Thanks.

Broadcast Screen – Allows the scanner to ignore search and Close Call hits on known broadcast
frequencies including pager frequencies. You can also program up to 10 custom frequency ranges
that the scanner ignores.

Go to Menu-Srch/CloCall Opt-Broadcast Screen
Set the bands you want rejected ("ON") or just set All Band On to make it simple.

Thanks much, I missed that in the manual.
