I have not noticed any drop off in performance here between the same two releases. Perhaps something has changed on the system you are monitoring or in your antenna or your config settings. Hard to help you troubleshoot without more info on when it worked best for you.

Check your settings and ensure nothing has changed regarding the system you're monitoring, I've noticed on scanner apps some feeds monitor more talkgroups than they list hence why you may think you're missing traffic.

If you have a friend that has a scanner that can listen to the same talkgroups you're scanning that'll be a little bit more reliable than the scanner feeds online.

The parameters of each individual's monitoring site is unique, thus any change in firmware has the potential to affect receiver performance at that site. It is more likely that the firmware change is affecting receive performance vs. a system change.

I think I found the problem,the pin on the end of the short mag mount that screws into the P25RX was so lose it just pulled out of the coupling,I went and recrimped it and it seems to work a lot better now.
