Picked up my scanner again this week and started to carry it when I go out and about. The first two Fergus dies are for the Rockingham shops 466.3250 security 464.7500 cleaners to take my scanner to WAGSMS this year to see if I could pick up any thing. I was hoping to be able to pick up the wireless...

Thanks Yorky, I decided to do something really stupid just now, using freescan I backed up my programming, then holding 2 9 HOLD and switching on the scanner the first thing it did was clear the memory, then it asked me "Restore Original Programming YES (E) NO (.) so I said YES, guess what, I g...

Hi All, I lost my cool (yes I got angry) with my scanner. I was blaming the scanner for not talking to the computer. I should of been blaming the USB-Serial adapter (cheap ebay one). Anyways in my moment of anger I deleted all the original programming for all the states that come with the scanner wh...

I have a question for those who have been using their 396xt's.

I have noticed that some of my frequencies will display a CTCS code and others don't. Does this mean that those frequencies don't use CTCS codes ??

Im currently tracking FBIR623 using FlightAware program. I gather its part of DFES but does anyone have any other information on it

Don't know if anyone else has stumbled across this site, but I have found an interactive map that you can click on a location and see who owns the transmitter, the frequencies used at the site, lat and long, and the address. I cannot gaurentee the accuracy but for a reference facility it makes a goo...

The Military Police vehicles do have red/blue light bars. They are set up with the blue light over the driver. WAPOL have the red light over the driver.

Recently I was required to assist WAPOL radio techs. We were testing a number of radios that are only used during special events. Currently they are still using analoug radios on two channels, plus two emergency channels A & B. All for of these are analoug frequencies. How ever, radio testing. W...

I'm looking at selling my DJ-x11E, comes complete with radio (missing belt clip), charger stand, power supply and programming cable. Unfortunately I don't have the manual any longer, but an electronic version is available from the Alinco website as is the programming software. http://www.alinco.com/...

Thanks R, will look at getting the 396

I know this is an old post, but just to clear some aspects up. 1. A defence member that is charged in civie land cannot be charged under the DFDA for the same crime. How ever there are ways and means around this. The common charge an ADF Member will face for being charged in civie land is s60 Prejud...

It time for an upgrade for my scanners. Havent been that happy with the Alinco DJ-X11, so I'm looking at replacing it. My previous two scanners were both Uniden, so I'm thinking about going back to Uniden. There are two models that I'm looking at one (UBCD396XT) is currently for sale and available i...
