The Official site for Freescan 396 and 996. No more Yahoo groups

[slingerr]

Well I spoke too soon....

Everything SEEMED to import fine BUT when running the scanner I noticed my digital trunked systems (P25 I believe) are not picking up at all or it was really really quiet in beaumont last night which I doubt.

Today I noticed that if I "hold" on a talkgroup on one of thes systems that the message "Finding CntrlChan" alternates with the group name.

Anyone know what I might need to do to fix this?

Thanks in advance!

You can download the system back and check to see if all the frequencies are present as in the 396T, although I don't see why they wouldn't be. Beyond that you may want to make sure that site and global attenuation are turned off.

So what error did you get?

 

[mrkelso]

So what error did you get?

It got stuck uploading the programming to the scanner and asked me if i wanted to save all this stuff to the clipboard.

 

[cpuerror]

Can you try again and e-mail me all that stuff? I will have a look at it to figure out what is wrong.

Ok a big window pops up and says Error 13 Weird because i had just downloaded what was in the machine, made a few adjustments like i think i locked out one freq then i uploaded it all back up and got the error 13 thing.

Thats all i have for you at this point.

When all else fails, do a complete uninstall and reinstall. Kinda like a computer - if it screws up, just reboot it!

trunked.

cpuerror,

First, I want to say thanks for the great program. I wanted to know if there is a way to move channels / talkgroups up and down without having to click the up/down buttons? More specifically, can the channels / talkgroups be dragged up & down? The reason I ask is that I have some groups that are very large and it takes a lot of clicking to rearange the channels. Thanks in advance.

Error message

Ive been trying to import from RR but keep getting this message,any ideas?

 

[nova1010]

Lets try that again

 

[ka3jjz]

That reads like you haven't got the most recent version. The XML based RR Import web service was shut down a while back. 73 Mike

 

[cpuerror]

JoeH, you can always create a new group and just cut and paste them in the order you want. No there isn't currently any way to move more then one up at a time within a group.

nova1010, it looks like it might be an issue with your ISP.

Thanks. That's an option that I hadn't thought of.

I just checked for update and says"You are using the most current version of FreeSCAN"

 

[cpuerror]

It's something to do with your ISP. Thats what I get from reading the error message.

 

[nova1010]
