Do you know with what serial numbers started with the new design?

Thanks

I do not. Look at the firmware updates. The new ones were made at about the time of the latest update. (newest as of this posting)

@JoeBearcat I'm seeing a trend here as @Matt5569 and @fulkg1 are having decoding problems on p25 systems also... and I think fulkg 1 has it sorted somewhat as we are all having trouble with control frequencies that are above the 171.200 and above...
This seems to be a problem with the 996p2's and 536hp's for sure so far..

The cc I’m having trouble with is 169.6625. I do notice that my 325p2 flashes p25 when on an active tg but the 996p2 doesn’t, and the 325 works fine. The 996 is showing sid info on hold like it should. I have an email into Uniden, but haven’t heard anything back if this is a known problem or not. Not sure what else I can do. I appreciate any ideas. Thanks.

I have a new BCD536HP I bought from a high volume dealer about three weeks ago. It's also at the current firmware and everything is working fine. In fact it appears to work better and sound better than any other non-SDS scanner I've ever owned, and I've owned A LOT!

Have you tried any VHF P25 frequencies above 170 MHz?

Tried this on my recently acquired 996P2 (within the past month) and am experiencing the same issue as others. No P25 audio decoded above 171 MHz. I also tried this on my old 996T and have no issues at all receiving P25 audio past 171 MHz.
