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 get it much when monitoring the RWC in Phoenix, but I noticed all sorts of popping noises and such when monitoring the Phase II PCWIN system down in Tucson. Based on my many years of messing around with computers and pushing them to their limits (and then some) this seems indicative of an overtaxed CPU. I think Uniden might have underestimated how much horsepower these new units need to run all the neat bells and whistles they stuffed in 'em. Still a great radio, but it gets annoying at times with the popping sounds, esp on Phase II systems.
Its the new decoder IC they are using in these units,because I had the same issues when I had the 536,only on phase 2 of course.Phase one is bassy though compared to a GRE or 996xt.

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.

Not a Weather Priority or a Close Call interruption. As I recall the snapping/popping was too fast to be a Priority issue, something with the way the scanner was decoding the Phase 2 TDMA.
