Hiya Guys.
So heres my problem. I have a Uniden 125xlt scanner which is connected to a Diamond D-777 Antenna in my loft.
The scanner works fine with the Antenna and i have no problems atall, But i decided that i wanted to connect my Uniden 125xlt to my Pc through the line in using a 3.5mm jack on the back of my pc so i can record the audio from the scanner.
Now heres the problem im having. When i try to listen to the audio on my pc from my scanner, i get this Humming sound when the scanner is quiet, infact even if i switch the scanner off the humming still persists.
So i did what we all would do and double check all cables and pc driver for being upto date, even did some googleing to see if i could find a solution for my problem but nothing jumped out at me apart from maybe needing to buy a grounding loop isolator.
So i took hold of my scanner and just decided to disconnect the loft antenne from the scanner and the Humming just stopped!. So i connected wattson super gainer and no Humming ( untill i touch the antenna conector and it starts to hum).
By the way: the humming im talking about is only audible through my pc headphones and not the uniden speaker on the front of the scanner.
So i figured the Loft antenna is causing this Humming sound that im picking up on my PC.
So guys, how do i solve this problem?.
Thanks in Advance.
