I live in Jackson County NC, at Western Carolina University.
I picked up this scanner from a friend and it turns on and works. I googled some scanner frequencies for the area, and I programmed them in to the scan channel banks.
But the only thing I get is some weird digital noise one like one or two channels.
So I am confused.
I this was a trunking scanner?
Which is digital?
And I though my area is still on analog?
I have read about the differences between digital and analog, and I thought this scanner would pick them up just fine, NOT encrypted signals, just normal digital.
My main question is how do I get this thing to pick up stuff like I did at my home town, (it would pick up a police officer every now and then, nothing much) like a setting or something that I am missing. Or did I just waste my time and money with this POS and a antenna that I also bought.
