In the last day or so I noticed that my BCD996P2 was showing a wierd frequency in Proscan and not logging any TGID or UID. I attempted to rewrite the database however it failed to respond.

I felt the need to address this issue after a local police department went full-encrypted on all bands. The notion that criminals might be listening is a non-sequitur argument. I respect the right to privacy protections per CJIS when it comes to a police band that relays records that require privacy protection. However, BOLOs or public safety matters...

Previously I was in Fayetteville, NC and had great times listening to the local police and fire. I just enter my zip code, preferred service types and I was set. Now near Enterprise, Alabama and I hear NOTHING! It is totally dead and boring. Some research shows me that the surrounding fire/police might use NXDN? And that I can somehow pay to upgrade my radio to access this? Just wanted to have some confirmation and guidance before blindly... Read more View article »
