Hi all i own a sds 100 my problem is i used to do a overnight discovery got a bunch of hits even if they were enxrypted etc

Now SINCE I FORGOT MY SCANBER IN MY LOADER IN -20 celcius. It finds nothing on trunked discovery and when i scan still nothing but i do pick up weather
What could be wrong

Coincidence my old uniden scanner seems quiet too

MAYBE TOWER PROBLEMS???

You might have issues with condensation leaving it out in the freezing temperature overnight. I would not keep it on, and give it a day inside to dry out. Unplug the battery as well. But I know I am over cautious with electronics, ever since I had a Motorola portable radio in my back pocket while I jumped from a Navy tugboat in the middle of Chesapeake Bay to another tug and the radio fell out of my pocket. Divers happened to be on the tug and retrieved it. 2 days later it was nothing but corrosion inside. And I had washed it with fresh water as soon as I was on shore in the radio shop. Water and electronics don't mix well
