Hello all,
I am a new owner of a Uniden Hone Patrol (with Extreme Upgrade). So far the scanner is working well and I am picking up all sorts of transmissions. However, I am unable to pickup Fairfax County (Virginia) police from in Fairfax, Virginia.
I updated the Home Patrol with the latest RR database (dtd 07 July 13) and still no luck. I see here on RR that Fairfax County police is a Project 25 system. It is listed as a Phase 1 system and as such, the home Patrol should be able to receive it.
I have upgraded the antenna to a Diamond SRH-789 whih helped quite a bit with reception but didn't yield any difference receiving Fairfax County Police. I am scanning inside Fairfax County and can hear Regan National airport in the next County over so I don't think reception is the issue. I am also able to pickup the Virginia State Police (STARS) system Dispatch very clear.
Can anyone help me fix this issue? I'm not sure what the exact issue is. Thanks for the assistance.
