Moved from a 346XT to a 436HP because my city migrated from analog 800MHz Mot II trunking to 700MHz P25 Phase II. With other variables the same - same location, same rubber duck antennas (800MHz Laird Antenex and stock) same distance to the tower (3 mi) - the signal goes from 4 full bars and strong, clear audio on the 346 to 1-2 bars and almost non-existent P25 calls on the 436. The radio is mostly silent on P25. The few calls I hear are almost always choppy and completely unintelligible.
My scanner is 3 feet from a window and just a few miles from the tower. I'm right in the city I'm trying to receive (Santa Clara, CA, SVRCS system). Never had any reception problems from the 346XT. I got all my city plus all the neighboring cities.
Why would I get a strong 800MHz control channel on the old scanner, and lousy signal on 700MHz P25 control channels? The scanner and tower locations were identical before and after the switch.
Need help!
