BC125AT: Not getting a whole lot on BC125AT?

[D31245]

Just checked my version. It is called: BC125AT SS

I assumed the SS was for Sentinel software. I was wrong.

Yep, that is correct.

I've had my 125AT for about a year now. It can get what shows as AM, NFM and FM listed here Radio Reference. You won't hear anything listed as NXDN or DMR or P25 (it can pick them up, but you'll only hear screeching as the 125AT can't decode them=digital channels). Scanning the banks is fine, you'll want to input things from the database here. I use the Uniden Software, it's a bit clunky but works fine. You plug in the USB cable from the scanner into your computer. The Uniden software looks like a spreadsheet, you can copy and paste the names and frequencies from the various listings here into the banks. You got an upgraded antenna, you should be all set. I keep my scanner on a window ledge by my desk, it doesn't get much indoors away from a window. Should be good to go.

However the only things I really ever pick up occasionally are Ham radio stuff and some civilian air stuff that just sounds really far away. I’m very close to Daytona, about a mile or so from a small airport, under 5 miles from a train station, there’s just a lot going on in the city I’m in but I somehow can’t pick up any EMS, or Railroad stuff, or anything for that matter.
