I have two SDS200's, and they both do the same thing and I'm stumped.
I live near the Michigan border, and my PSR-500 and PRO-106 are busy chattering away with Michigan traffic. Signal strength even with the stock duck is fine, full quieting.
I have all the service types on in the SDS200, range is set to max. The SDS200 has any site I can possibly hear NOT avoided, and all the far away ones avoided. They are set to ID Search. They aren't deaf, but they miss about 50-60% of what I hear on the two handhelds. Monroe County and Washtenaw County sites are full quieting, and seem to be getting most of what the handhelds do, but there is still some missing. A few minutes ago, the talk group "911 Dispatch" had a long key up on the PSR-500 sitting a foot away from the SDS200 All I heard on the SDS200 is the tail end of the transmission. Since I have set most of the sites in Mi to avoid, the cycle time to go through the system is maybe 15 seconds when there is no traffic, and that key up was over a minute long..
Now the mysterious part, if that isn't enough. If I wipe out the programming and use the Zip Code, it's all there. Of course, it takes forever to go through the system, but when it gets around to it, I hear it all. I then went and reloaded the file I have called SDSsecond one test, something like that, and I get everything, for a while. But within a few days, it gets pretty quiet again. I wipe out my favorites list and reload it and all is well. For a couple of days. NOTHING ELSE does this, not MARCS-IP, NWOHIO, etc. They always work the same, no problems. Any idea what's going on?
