My SDS200 arrived - WOW

[Greg43545]

My SDS200 arrived yesterday - OMG, it picks up EVERYTHING - EVERYWHERE in my home! I'm sure many here have read the issue I was having with the Northwest Ohio Regional Public Safety System and the Simulcast Distortion. Not any more!

Since I had a Home Patrol 2 first, I was able to download Sentinel and program it with no problem.

I want to thank EVERYBODY for convincing me that the extra money was worth the quality and satisfaction.

Now, I do have one question. I read the manual and tried to do a System Avoid, but have not had any luck in accomplishing it.

I touched System (1), then touched Avoid, but it appeared like nothing was ' accepted ' if you will. The System continued to scan, and there were no indicators that an avoid had taken place or was in the process.

Any suggested would be appreciated - thanks

Thanks for the offer, I appreciate it.

But I've already received information on how to do it from another SDS200 owner.
