After 20 years of radio silence, I have picked up a Uniden BCD396XT. Growing up, my grandfather and I would spend hours with his old stationary unit. I did a little research and ended up with this setup just to tinker with... perhaps I got in over my head.
Quick question. As I am reading through (Easier to Read BCD396XT Digital Scanner Manual) the easier to read manual for the unit and familiarizing myself with it, is there any way for me to put it on auto mode and just search? Right now it is how it comes out of the box, and just sticks on "Alaska ALMR ID Search". If I do the Close Call, it just picks up a radio station. Any idea if there's a general local search, or are there just too many possibilities for that?
I'm sure I will get there through the next few days of reading, but WOW are things more difficult than I remember.
