I am trying to program my faithful SC230 for an upcoming cruise, uploading ship frequencies, marine frequencies, GMRS/FRS, and CB.
Things have gone well until today when something went South, and I thought (stupidly) that the scanner was messed up.
Bctool+, Free Scan, and Uniden's SC230-UASD are unable to connect to the scanner.
In device manager it sees the prolific USB to Serial Port on whatever USB connector I move it to.
I did a reset to the scanner (hold+2+9), and now it says nothing to scan.
When I go to the menu I am able to listen to NOAA weather.
I have saved systems for the cruise and am able to bring them into the above programs:
bctool+ comes back with “could not communicate with scanner, response received -1”
free scan says “critical error, invalid response or insufficient resources, aborting channel programming”
UASD sees the correct port, but can't communicate.
Any ideas on what I can try next?
Can I download something from Uniden to put my SC230 back to square 1?
I really don't want to pack my HP-1 (E), as I wanted to use the Close Call feature.
Thanks
