I have a new Uniden BCD996P2 and trying to listen to Orange County NY - I am in Western Orange Co. on the PA/NY border. Using FreeScan, I added the system. The problem is the North Simulcast is garbled and inconsistent. I have adjusted the Threshold up and down and have not found it helps. Any advice to fine tune this. Everything else works fine.

See the numerous posts on this and other Forums about the fact the BDC996P2, and most other scanners, can not reliably receiver P25 Simulcast systems such as Orange County. Limited reception may be possible depending on your location.

Only Uniden SDS100/200 and Unication scanners are designed for proper simulcast reception.
