Received the 800 on Friday of last week. Set everything up the software. No problems. Worked great pulling in stuff my BC246T wasn't. Everything was sunshine and roses.
Last night I loaded in a few new conventional frequencies. This morning I turn it on and take to work. On for five hours and not one transmission. I live in a small town but not that small! It shows that it's scanning and I checked and all the frequencies are there. EDACS systems properly identified. The only thing I occasionally pick up is a conventional channel for Texas Parks and Wildlife and a conventional for Medevac. Otherwise nothing. I'm getting stuff on my 246 so I know it's not the system.
I've checked everything I can think of as far as settings in the software and can't find anything out of place. I'm sure I must overlooking something. I've tried different antennas and checked my squelch setting. Also, I can pick up the weather frequency no problem. I'm about to send it a ticket to GRE but thought I would check here first in case someone else has had this problem. Hopefully I don't have a faulty unit.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Glenn
