Every so often now and again, i get this sparking snap out of the speaker of my 436HP has anyone else noticed this? Both Conventional and P25 system. Does it with Audio playing or without.
I don't have this scanner but I have a thought, is the battery saver function turned on? Maybe when it wakes up looking for activity, it might be causing this. Try turning it off and see if that helps.
Again, this is just a thought.
I had my 436HP out today specifically to listen to a Phase 2 system that is nearby but not something I can receive at home.
I had the popping type noise that is not a simulcast type of garbling, but appears to be something to do with the Phase 2 decoding as mentioned?
The Phase 2 audio sounded fine, just with the pops/clicks in the middle of the comms. Annoying but not enough to cause the comms to be unreadable.
Hopefully this is something that can be cleaned up with Firmware updates/changes?
This also assumes Uniden has the ability to actually monitor and test against a Phase 2 system so they can actually monitor and test against.
I wonder if the GRE PSR 800 has the "pop/clicking" noise when it decodes Phase 2?
