So I've got (as the title says) a Uniden BCD996XT.
I'm trying to get Gage County Sheriff's Office (Nebraska, Nebraska State Radio System Trunking System, Statewide, Nebraska) to work properly.
I've set it all up (what I think is) correctly.
I have a Nebraska SRS System.
I have a Gage County Site set up with the Band Plan from the Link above. I've also put in the frequencies that are listed under Beatrice - Gage on the table. I'm pretty sure the Primary Control Frequency is 115.190, but regardless, I have them all in the frequency page.
I also have a Group set up and inside the group I have the different channels. I'm only trying to get 4 different ones right now Gage CO LE, Gage SO, Gage SO Admin, and Gage EMA. I have all of these in with their respective talkgroups.
When I have my scanner set to HOLD on the 155.1900 frequency, it shows me an SID. There's no sound though. When I scroll over to my Gage CO LE, nothing. I get the bars as if something is received. The bars stay on and go off somewhat intermittently. No discernable pattern that I can make out. If I take my scanner out and we go to where I know is out of range, it does show me that it is "Finding CtrlChannel" so I'm almost certain it has found the Control Channel and is using that. But I'm just not getting ANY activity. I know there's activity going on. I've had a Gage Co Deputy next to me while his radio is receiving from his dispatch but my scanner just doesn't want to cooperate with me here.
Any help on what my problem might be would be greatly appreciated. Or any other tests I can do to help determine the problem.
Thanks ahead of time for the help guys.
Edit: This edit is immediately after I posted this. Just for clarification, I can get another county to work flawlessly. I know it IS able to produce sound before anybody asks! LOL
