Hello Forum Reader's, I own a Uniden Home Patrol-1 that is programmed correctly (to the best of my knowledge), and I recently began using an SDR radio. My question is: Why is my SDR radio receiving 100% of the transmission's on Public Safety frequency 155.010.000MHz in Pittsburg, Kansas, while my Home Patrol-1, locked on the same frequency, fail's to receive 100% of the transmission's? I purchased the Home Patrol-1 from a Fire Chief on eBay who claimed the Home Patrol-1 function's perfectly. After receiving the Home Patrol-1, I purchased the Extreme Upgrade in which I have not utilized yet, because I have a mental disability and I have a problem with reading, memory and comprehension. I'm speculating that the Home Patrol-1 is free of functionality defect's. The Firmware and Database are updated regularly. Would anyone please explain how a $10 FM dongle can perform better that a $300 Home Patrol-1? Thank you, Mark D. Miller. KE0MQQ
