Something I am missing. When Powhatan converted to their new system, I confirmed the radio was current, updated the data base and all was well. Additional channels/talk groups were located and the RR database was again updated. With a new/recent update, I appear to not be receiving any of the new channels.(new, old or updated), When I updated the database, and if you look, the new channels are in a listing of their own in the drop down. If you first look at the RR site state/county listing, the new channels are not shown on the county listing but on a new page for the P25 system which is a new Harris system. I tried making a custom search group with the new system channels, although they are listed and saved, they are not coming up in the radio itself with a search on the county group or the custom search. I tried on/off Attenuation, expanded and contracted the distance setting, changed antennas, both outside and inside. I do not have the additional features update.
What am I missing? They are shown in the update download but where are they in the radio, if they get there upon saving to the radio.
Additionally, my SHP reception has dwindled to almost nothing. I suspect the coax to the outside antenna may be damaged or the antenna, but have a short mast antenna to use, and can receive western direction divisions and used to receive Tidewater easily. Previously i found some of the SHP channels were in another Service group, and reception was fine. I have not looked for the SHP channels after the last update via Sentinel.
Maybe a new SD card? Or is there something I am missing in the download procedure?
The new BCD325P2 is next.
