Imported and downloaded frequency database directly from Radio Reference db into the Uniden BCD396XT using FreeScan, and zilch. I have another scanner (old analog) sitting next to the Uniden and the Uniden just scans all day and has picked up one conventional analog signal. There is traffic but this scanner never seems to pick anything up. The obvious, the squelch is turned down very low, just to ensure it doesn't stop on any noise, and the volume is turned up. I have spent three days messing with this thing trying to determine if it is the radio or me. This is a new radio with the current firmware. I reset the radio to wipe out the pre-loaded frequencies and downloaded only the stuff in my area. I am on the verge of just sending it back.....and either send me another one or buy a different one all together. Primary interest is the rebanded Jefferson County Regional Radio System, and imported directly, so don't know what I could be doing wrong. Thoughts, comments, anything is appreciated at this point.
