Looking for help! I have a Uniden BCD396XT that I just dug out of the closet. I used to scan local PD's in MA with no problem. Just moved to Illinois and I am trying to get my local PD / FD. I am not a savvy user at all. It seams Carol Stream (and northwest suburbs) use STARCOM21. Can anyone tell me if my scanner is able to pick up these channels or am I outdated? I do not know much about P25. Any help on where to begin is appreciated!! Thanks!

I sent you in a message as I'm pretty familiar with this area.

We have been in communication via PM. He will be downloading FreeSCAN tomorrow and is waiting for a cable. I have already created and attached a programming file. If you would like the file, I would be happy to attach it here and share it with you. The file is for DuPage County and Illinois State Police.

Ok, Ive downloaded FreeScan and I have the file you sent in there. I actually found the cable that came with it but it is the serial cable so that wont work. Im going to buy one online now! then should be good to go!
