Phantom FL freq changes 536/100

[n0wla]

I have a 536 and a 100.....both are programmed identical. Last week the 536 "lost" a FL!? Today the 100 has all the FL but one has diff programmed freq from another FL on it!? WTH??!! (heck)
Anyone else experienced such unacceptable encounters from either of theses radios?

Are you using any software other than Sentinel?

I had something similar happen back when the NXDN upgrade came out. I had created a NXDN Favorites list manually, on the scanner, then imported it into ProScan once it supported NXDN. (At that point, Sentinel still had not been updated as yet). When that NXDN list got read into Sentinel, I had several lists "swap data", like what you're seeing. The index of Favorites lists in Sentinel, and the scanner, is based on numbered lists, not the name you see in the software or while scanning. Basically, having a list that Sentinel had not seen got the sort index corrupted, and I had 'list 1', but with, say, 'list 2's' programming,and list 2 had something other than expected.

"Swap" is a good description. I dont have NXDN or any other upgrades. Its a nuissens!
Love the new SDS!! The only thing happening when I noticed both is thunderstorms!?!?

I think I might have figured it out.....I remember "saving" things after editing last time. I seems that when you save it saves as a "profile". Well then if you do further editing and dont save then write to scanner it must write the profile. LSS........I got things back in order and all is working as I want them to and Im happy again. I really like the technology of these new state of the art sds scanners. Far superior to the old days!!

PS.....you must delete the profile or probably save all as intended.....maybe I can catch up to full understanding someday

The profile is your scanner settings that aren't channel programming. Display configuration, your location, and so on. Don't delete it.
