Hi everyone,
I recently purchased a PRO-2006 online (I know it is an old scanner and all that, but it fits my needs in my county, plus I also have a PRO-164). Anyway today I noticed that when it is plugged in to the wall socket, even when it is turned off, it makes a humming noise. Same noise when turned on (it is not an annoying noise, it is just like a low and soft humming ). I have not noticed the same noise with my other devices at all.
Has anybody ever encountered the same problem with their scanner? Maybe is the house electric wiring? Sometimes I can't even have 2 heaters on at the same time...or the electricity shuts down.
Any help is appreciated!
Mike
PS:actually I find the noise annoying now(off or on, it does not matter), and I am wondering why i did not notice it before. I was playing with antennas yesterday, but I also played with some antennas on my PRO-164 and it is working fine.
