Hello all, this is my first time here. Nice place you have here.
I hope you can help. I have a Pro 197 that I’m have trouble with, not sure if it’s the unit or me.
I purchased this radio used about 8 or 10 years ago, I don’t recall if I had issues with it then, but something made me loose interest in it. I would now like to get this scanner up and running, so I got my ARC 500 subscription going and also my Radio Reference premium membership.
I downloaded all of the public service frequencies for Summit County Ohio. (where I live). Everything worked great, but I have a big issue. When scanning, I get great signal strength on all frequencies, but no modulation. (Audio). When going to the NOAA station, same thing but I can hear the station, but barely. Volume and squelch have no effect. (They're normal). I'm using a rooftop antenna. Switching out the antenna with the telescoping one that came with the unit makes no difference.
I probably missed something really simple. Any idea what that might be?
