Does the scanner properly receive any other programmed P25 trunking systems, simulcast sites or otherwise? Did you park the scanner on one of the frequencies in the system (not a control channel) to s

This venerable analog-only model is still being offered new, and I recently purchased NIB from reputable electronics retailer. Primarily for civil/mil airbands. My attic discone feeds the 15X and 3 IC

Sorry for confusion - the Uniden misses what the ICOMs hear. Les

It is a new Stridsberg active multicoupler that is described as providing the same unattenuated signal to each of 8 BNC outputs, so i doubt that changing ports will have an effect. But, no harm in try

No difference trying other output ports on the multicoupler. Unlike a signal splitter, an active multicoupler provides uniform amplification and isolation of all output ports to neutralize signal loss

Interim Report: I tried different multicoupler ports and even the discone feeding 15X directly; as expected, the same results. A signal must be at least S7 on the ICOMs in order to break minimum squel

A good point; didn't consider it, since I don't have airbands programmed into the 536 (using it for local P25 Phase 1 public service). Will program in a conventional airband system and conduct an A-B

I conducted an A-B test with the BCD536, which won (although even that scanner does not pick up the BWI ATC the ICOMs receive). Interestingly, both Unidens had the same limited reception until I disco

I reprogrammed using ProScan, no attenuation either global or by system. I am avoiding anything that would invalidate the warranty. I propose to return it to the vendor for credit or exchange. Les, K3

The local NOAA signal is too strong for testing purposes, but I receive the Eastern Shore (162.5), about 30 miles away, 5-9 on the other radios. The 15X does not hear it at all. I won't open the radio

HRO would not replace (15 day return policy), so I shipped it to Uniden under mfr. warranty. As a 50+ year commercial law attorney I might have questioned HRO's return policy, but it wasn't worth maki

it's perfectly lawful, but involves the technicalities of the Uniform Commercial Code, which is outside the scope of this Group. The radio will be in Uniden's capable hands, so everything's fine. L
