Pro-97 no longer scans?

[RensoreK]

I have recently tried checking my local PD, which I do every day or so, and I noticed it scans and scans and doesn't find anything, so I checked the squelch knob and it was set just fine. Then I noticed it wouldn't pick up NOAA weather radio either. If I turn the squelch all the way down I don't get a 'static' noise, the only sound I hear is the beeping from when I press the buttons, so I know the speaker is ok. I've had this radio for 2 months and I treat it very carefully. Why would it stop working suddenly?

P.S. I tried re-initializing it and that didn't help. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it!!

If you had it for only 2 months it should still be under warranty, so take it back to the store and exchange it. That's pretty odd that you won't hear static, but you do hear the keypad beep. Weird.
