Hello all

I just purchased a BC296D and its pretty cool.
I have had scanners for 30 years and when they started going digital it was
like lights being turned off. lol

ANyway, has anyone had problems getting the software "Bearcat Supplied"
control direct working fine but the upload and downloading of freqs not
communicating? I get "Communication error".

Also
It seems to be a real pain to get the sound quality tuned to a reasonable
level and do you have to tune every digital freq?
I got a couple pretty good but several others suck.

Also
After you charge the battery 18 hours (unit shut off but plugged in) I get a
few hours and the low battery "beep" starts in. Doesn't the unit run under
house power without the battery? I run scanners 24-7 and need to be able to
pull it out to the truck from time to time.

Thanks in advance for any help.
