Cleared user data via sentinel then programmed unit with saved copy of my programming from the other scanners... Read more View article »

02-02-26 Ghosting A Radio One way to prevent "polling" of a radio is to use an very odd-ball Logical ID number (LID) in the radio AND change the DEFAULT value (16777212) of the FNELID... 02-02-26, 03:10 am One way to prevent "polling" of a radio is to use an very odd-ball Logical ID number (LID) in the radio AND change the DEFAULT value (16777212) of the FNELID (Fixed Network Equipment Logical ID) programmed into the radio. The FNELID is the LID number of the radio system's control server, that issues Poll Commands and other maintenance data message (Key loading, Reprogramming, Kill/ Stun commands, etc.) All domestic P-25 systems have a default FNELID of 16777212. The only exception I am... Read more View article »

I recently had a new audio system and backup camera... 02-02-26, 01:01 am Yes, I did a search of this site as well as YouTube and the internet at large. Now I'm more confused than before. I recently had a new audio system and backup camera installed in my 2009 Ram 1500 pickup truck. Yesterday I was told by a very experienced ham that I have a little "alternator noise" with transmission. He described it as "a whine and a little static" not loud and not interfering with his ability to understand my signal, but definitely present. Before the new sound system, nobody...
