Hello all, new to scanners in general and I need a little help. I received a Uniden BCT15X as a Christmas gift. Unfortunately, the person giving this gift is totally oblivious to the switchover to digital and the slow death of analog systems as a result.
I can't bear the thought of telling them it's nothing more than an expensive paperweight, but my lack of success is telling me so.
So, I live in Wexford County MI, using Freescan I have partially successfully programmed local frequencies. However, only one or two entries out of the 50 or so i EZ grabbed show up when i turn the dial, and i get nothing from them but static "clicks" or simply white noise. None of the individual frequencies on RR specifically show as digital, so i'm hoping it's me and not that my radio is SOL.
Can any fellow Michiganders give me a clue on hat to do, or can tell me if Wexford has gone completely digital?
