TRX-1 stopped receiving channels.

[rajvet]

I have had my TRX-1 for several years and it has been picking up a lot of channels. A couple of weeks ago i updated it using EZ scanner. Now it hardly ever picks up anything. The weather channel works fine. The S meter show strong signals but the scanner does not stop scanning. I turned the squelch all the way down and it makes now difference. I am using the rubber ducky and a discone antenna. My uniden trunk tracker works fine with these antennas.
Is there some setting/s that i might have screwed up when i updated it?

Replace the SD Card

Please attach your archive file and I will check it for problems.

It would help to know what system(s) or frequency(ies) you're having trouble with so we can rule out issues like simulcast distortion, encryption, etc. Hard to come to a conclusion without knowing what you're listening to

Format and re-load your SD card.

Where do i find the archive file? What is it named?

 

[tvengr]

In the TRX-1 programming software, go the File tab and Save Current Configuration to Archive. You will be able to name the file anything you like.

Here it is

All your data files are empty and I see two references to Iscan. Are you using whistler software?

 

[KMG54]

You should be using TRX1 install on this page. TRX-1 Scanner Downloads last I knew Iscan was for old Radio Shack scanners.

I see all of the proper programming. What you are lacking is enabling the necessary scan lists. To receive all of the talkgroups and conventional frequencies you have programmed, go to the General Settings tab and enable scan lists 151 thru 159, 163, 168 thru 171, and 173. After enabling the scan lists, save the current configuration to archive and copy configuration to scanner memory/SD card.

When you save the current configuration to archive, make sure you give the file a name that you can remember so that you can recall it later in case you have to restore the configuration. Don't miss reading previous post #11. It should address your problem.

Tried tvengr's recommendation and it seems to be working fine now. Thanks for the help.

Scan lists 151 thru 181 are your service types. You had only scan lists 151 (Multi Dispatch), 152 (Law Dispatch), and 153 (Fire Dispatch) enabled. Please let me know if you have any questions.
