I own both the 685 D and the 250D and have purchased and had them both programmed when they first came out. On my 685D I only monitor the CSP. Suddenly as I'm driving along I noticed after a while the 685D ( with card installed) wasn't picking up any transmissions but my 250D was.. HELP!!!
What went wrong?

"Plan" is an Uniden setting you have to program when you are using Control Channel Only mode read pages 66 and 67 of the manual and you'll find out everything you need to know!

how about the local data channel? was it locked out? the only way i have programmed these radios for csp is- i put in all of the frequencies and talkgroups that are listed and then make sure that i have the correct data channel turned on. thru alot of testing (thanks ed ) all around the state, it seems to work the best. it takes a little bit of work to do it this way, but the feedback has been good. hope this helps bill simpson
