BCD436HP/BCD536HP: Weird NAC code issue with 436HP

[SCPD]

While using firmware 1.02.03 I like that version because VHF high seems to be a bit more sensitive I have discovered after I tried using F7E as a nac code so all Nacs pass on one system ,they didnt pass audio on Rutherford ,NJ F1. I then when into the scanner using the scanner and not the software that some of my other favorite lists with Nac codes were set to 0 when I know the database it had a setting.I wasnt getting anything so I switched everything to Search on the Nac code setting and all is unsquelching now!
So somehow the NAC gets corrupted,I dont change my favorite lists much but I was alarmed when I wasnt hearing nearby towns.....I have 70 lists only.
so I get more action on Search (nac pl setting)
Like this radio over the 536,which I got rid of.Seems to work better to me.

Has F7E ever worked in a scanner as an "unsquelch all"?

 

[SCPD]

odd

Has F7E ever worked in a scanner as an "unsquelch all"?

I beleieve it worked on my 996xt .....
I could be wrong .
But the NAC going to zero is just weird.
I update every monday so how did that happen?

 

[SCPD]

no?

NAC - The RadioReference Wiki


is this info not correct?

 

[Jay911]

It is correct, including this line within that page:

Note that the above is true for commercial grade radios only; setting a scanner to NAC F7E is not the same as setting it to 'NAC Search'.

 

[SCPD]

LOL

It is correct, including this line within that page:

Update:
Ok so the F7E thing is void then

The only issue with NAC is after programming the 436HP it is changing the NACs by itself to 0.

Please export and post one of your favorites lists that has (or once had) this problem so people can check it out and see if anyone can find a problem. In Sentinel, go File>Export to hpe, export it, then zip up the file and post it here as an attachment.

I leave CTCSS/DCS/NAC settings all on "search" so the scanner will play all traffic it finds, regardless of what that traffic is tagged with.

This occurred after updating the database in sentinel as far as I know,My files are now set to search NAC.So if I post the hpe it wont be the same .
