Hello All,
When I first purchased the rig [November, 2019] I could hear San Diego Fire/EMT/Police audio very well. I don't often monitor S.D. from my qth, but occasionally I do. The past month or so I have been unable to hear anything comms at all---not even SANITATION, which previously was a booming 5 bar signal.
I have a discone up about 30' on a mast, w/LMR400 coax. The RSSI swings between 60 and 116 dBm. Signal strength is between 4 and 5 bars...but no "P25" indicator on any TG signal, even after 5 minutes of monitoring a busy "central dispatch" TG.
Current filter setting is wide invert which brings in the best noise numbers. I've changed the filter settings, from one to another, with no joy.
Inyo County Fire comes in at 3 signal bars; that's 300+ miles away to the north, but I don't get a peep from San Diego, just 40 miles to the south.
Any ideas on where to point me? Where I might be going wrong, would be most gratefully received. Thx!
