Any idea how to get Discovery Mode to work? I fill in the freq range, steps, etc but when I go to do the search the "Start" button is grayed out. Happens on both Trunk and Conventional. Am I missing something?

I did pay for it. I can access the other things like LCN Finder, Analyzer, Band Scope, RF Power Plot etc.
Is there another update you must buy?

I had the same problem earlier this week, and after messing around for over 2 hours I came up with the answer. I was operating my HomePatrol-1 off of the AC adapter without batteries inside it. I figured out that the HomePatrol-1 won't record if the batteries are not installed. Doesn't matter if you're running off of external power or not. I don't remember seeing this info anywhere else on the forums.

Please let me know if this was you issue ;-)

Don't take this the wrong way, but do you have batteries in it? It won't record without batteries and the Discovery mode records.... (It grays out Start)
