BCD996T No audio thru speaker issue

I recently purchased a very gently used BCD996T ...I have audio from the front port for head phones but no audio out put from either the internal speaker or aux. speaker jack. The previous owner used the scanner to feed RR and at some point may have gone in and silenced the exterior speaker in the program- he is not not sure. Last up dated aprox. a year ago as I understand. I did test it using the weather radio feature and I was receiving a good, strong signal just only able to hear it thru the headphone jack. I did do a re-set as well (2-9-hold) with no luck .... need to know what to do.....

BCD536HP Stuoid question.

Hi All.



Stupid question but howdo I manually put the BCD536HP in Serial Mode via the keypad on the scanner?



Thanks Sheldon.

VX-4600 Scan Issue

I have a new VX-4600 (VHF) with firmware 1.23 loaded from the factory. No matter what settings I run, I cannot get the darn radio to revert to the last busy channel after stopping on a scan. If I hit the P1 button (programmed for scan) while stopped on an active channel, it reverts back to the initial channel, not the last busy. This happens in normal or group scan. I am not using priority scan.



Am I expecting too much? On my Moto CDM1250 and PM400, if I toggle the scan off on an active channel, it STAYS on that channel, which is what I want the VX-4600 to do as well.



Does anyone have any insight into this? I am considering upgrading the firmware but it won't work with the aftermarket USB cable I have. I think I'll need to order the OEM cable(s) - FIF12 and CT104.



Thanks,

Dave

West Hartford looking to upgrade their TRS

I found they requested for companies to submit to consult the town on upgrading their radio system back at the end of 2013. The PDF can be found here: http://ift.tt/1mtD2xo. One of the requests is on page 3:

Quote:

5. Analyzing and reporting on the costs and benefits of migrating to a digital Phase 2-type radio system, including but not limited to the feasibility of adding broadband capability to the new LMRS.

I'm sure they'd work with New Britain for any issues they ran into installing their system. Considering they're on a SmartNet system, which is just this side of Type I, I'd imagine they'd want to move fairly quickly so maybe by the end of 2015 we'll have something?

Mesa PD Talkgroups

Does anyone monitor Mesa PD on a regular basis that can help me understand HOT channel usage? Here are the Mesa PD talkgroups listed in the DB for TRWC:



3000 D District 1 Patrol

3001 E District 1 TAC

3002 E District 1 HOT (Encrypted)

3003 D District 2 Patrol

3004 E District 2 TAC

3005 D District 1 HOT

3006 D District 3 Patrol

3007 E District 3 TAC

3009 D District 4 Patrol

3010 E District 4 TAC

3011 E District 4 HOT



Patrol talkgroups are accurate, but I’m wondering about HOT channels. Here are my questions:



3002 Encrypted – Is this only used for District 1, or do all Districts use this talkgroup for HOT calls?

3005 – DB lists this as NOT encrypted. Is this talkgroup really in the clear?

3005 – Is this only used by District 1? Is it used by District 2, 3, or 4?

3008 – Talkgroup is not listed in the DB. I’m guessing if this is a valid talkgroups, it is encrypted. Anyone caught 3008 active? Is this District 3 HOT?
