Perhaps you could provide a model number and a link to some information about your particular scanner? That might be helpful. How do you all feel about the Uniden BC246T handheld scanner? http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/4753 It gets some wonderful reviews. It seems that would be the perfect scanner for me here in Swampeast Missouri. I've decided not to spend any more money on my Uniden Pro 97 http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/5082 Well, I went ahead and ordered a new GRE PSR 300 for $148.00 and a W-881 Super Gainer BNC Portable Antenna for $32.95 They next one I want to buy is the Uniden BC246T. It has a totally different way of working. so it might be fun to play around with that. do you think these are good choices? I can speak highly of the BC246T, I have 2 of them. I bought the first one not long after they hit because of size. Was using a Pro95 (that still works) at work. The learning curve was a bit of a PITA since they are so different, but after a little frustration I had it programmed and working. I use the Radio Shack 800 MHz antennas on mine, they seem to work a little better on the 800 band and are easier to carry. I often carry it in a T-shirt pocket with another shirt over it. The reason I got the second one was after a couple years of hard use at work, the first one was having trouble with the switch for the earphone. It is used with an ear piece plugged in at work. That one does still work but now and then I have to push on the jack to get it to work. Second one has been going strong for a couple years now. -- Inside every older person is a younger person wondering, 'What the hell happened?' |
