Hi Everyone
I have a Pro106 i have had it for a while i bought it in 2009 and have spent a lot of time listening to it. I updated it a while ago with all the Pennsylvania. I have done this a few times over the years. I have had a great time with it.
I have noticed though that even though i have the trunked systems from PA-STARNet imported into WIN500, and subsequently loaded onto the scanner,
I seldom get any hits. when i do get the occasional hit, the voice is so garbled i cannot make anything out.
My guess is, and i am coming here to confirm is that my scanner is an outdated piece of kit that needs replaced. If this is not the case, what in the world am i doing wrong. If my scanner is too outdated to use anymore - Can anyone recommend a handheld that i can replace it with, that will do the trunked systems and everything else.
I guess i should ask this first, but does anyone know if the PA-STRARNet is all encrypted, so if i can get a scanner to program it would it even be worth the hassle or expense, or would i just be right back where i started? When looking at the list of frequencies, i see two different sets of letters in the Mode column. "T" and "TE" does this have anything to do with encryption?
I like the scan lists in the pro 106, how i can turn them on and off depending on what i am doing. that is something i am looking for with a new scanner. I am looking at the Uniden BCD325P2.
I have seen a lot of posts regarding this topic, however none of them seem to entirely answer my question.
Thank you to all for your time.
