Looking to see if there is someone in the Stockton area that I can bounce some questions off. Maybe we can turn it into a meeting if some people would like. I am not new to scanner but I am having some problem and looking for idea how to try to fix them.

Sorry I wish I could help. I lived in that area and my mom scan the frequencies in Stockton in the early 70s. Unfortunately I can’t help you now.

I am in the Sacramento area but monitor Stockton from here. Not sure what kind of questions you have. City PD & Fire both on 450MHz UHF P25 in the clear.

I can hear them but for some reason my bar showing the strength is showing one and two bar and I am right outside of downtown. I have had the problem for over 2 years. I have tried a couple of other antennas with the same showing. I take the radio out of the area and I get full bars. I have the same with the co depts. too

Could the problem just be the signal strength meter? Does it sound scratchy or is there full quieting? Is it a hand-held scanner? Some are notorious for the wire breaking inside the scanner between the antenna connector and the PCB.

You said you have tried other antennas, are these outside antennas or indoors?
If outside, how is your coax? If inside, do you live in a stucco house?
