TO mike
Hey thanks for the reply, Im in harrison county, ia, and im trying to here pott county. Its is a 800 mhz trunked system i believe. I work for the state of iowa, and we have many of these scanner we use, most of them mounted in patrol cars, and all of them are a excellent system. Im using the freescan system to programm the scanner, I have a database that im going off of, that has worked in other 996xt scanners, I dont know if im missing something obvisous in the setup of it or whats going on. I have put the frequencys into the scanner with freescan and they all stuck, But cant get much out of it, Sometimes cant even get it to squelch. I take it out in my pickup, and i show 3 or 4 bars on it for signal in places, but still not getting anything out of it. I can hear conventional stuff i have put in from harrison county, but still is kinda of chopy at times, or i even miss the hole transmission. Remeber im a first time trunked scanner owner, .
