Recently bought a WS1065, which replaced a PRO-2096.
I am trying to track ICORRS, which is the only halfway decent trunked system in my area. It's in a vehicle, with a hole-mounted NMO 800MHz antenna on the roof. I have seen many people having the problem I'm having, but no solutions have worked thus far, and I've seen no real solutions offered other than "fiddle with it".
It is not receiving the ICORRS system. At all. Parked in front of my house, and all around the local area. In these same areas, my PRO-2096 did fine. Also, the actual Motorola XTL1500 that I have for the ICORRS system works great. Just getting that out of the way. It is not a receive range issue.
I have manually tuned to the control channels, turned the squelch all the way down, and hear nothing but the usual white noise.
I have used the TSYS ---> Analyze features. Nothing. It does nothing when the XTL is booming the same traffic on the same talkgroup that I've manually held on. Nothing.
Programmed, reprogrammed, and reprogrammed again with ARC 500, WIN500 twice, and about to try PSREdit.
Was Whistler's business model to buy GRE and then ruin perfectly working scanners? This seems to be a widespread problem, and you'd think it'd be fixed by now, what with these things being pricier than Uniden.
