I have had a 396 for 7 months now. I can not figure out stars. I do as all these forums say. I have firmware 2.00.07. I am going to update again today to the 3.0. Below are the steps I have taken
1. Select New system
2. Select MOT
3. P25
4. Add frequency 152.0375 for the richmond main control channel.
I can not get it to work. I live 15 minutes south of richmond. Right along 288 almost at 95. The signal is not a problem I am sure. I can listen to the static all day long of traffic stops. I also listen to Chesterfield Fire, EMS, Police, and Colonial Heights Fire, EMS, and Police. I can not think of how many times I have read my book and researched all over the internet. I have put the band plans in, Reset my scanner to default, review all settings to make sure they aren't messing anything up. I can listen to everything else besides STARS. If someone could PLEASE help me I would appreciate it. I just don't understand what I am not getting. When i do the steps above and try to listen the channel just is blank and the scanner just searches for ID tags. Left it on my charger for a whole night before and never received one a single transmission. I love listening to VASPD, all the crazy New York drivers and the humor of the troopers especially when a call came in say a Prius had ran out of gas the trooper responded "WHAT?!?!". Again anyone able to shed light on my operator errors. Thanks
