Good morning! I picked up a used Uniden Homepatrol 2 yesterday. I used to have one of these units several years ago, so I'm familiar with it and with using Sentinel to program it.
When I plugged it in and updated it with Sentinel, I now show a database updated as of 1/17/2021, but I'm picking up almost nothing when I turn it on and listen.
What I do get are some ambulance dispatch frequencies from quite a long ways away, some through the MN Armer system, some outside of it, so I think that the unit itself and the antenna are okay. But I'm not getting any of the same things that I hear through the Broadcastify stream locally.
Curious if anyone might have a tip for me as to where I might be going wrong!
