Not all of my fire bands will come in any more and they are trunked is it becouse i need a new radio or the pro-97 is out of date or i am not promgraming it right for montgomery county pa

Most police stations are using the new motorola trunking units, they are on encrypted custom band channels and you will not be able to hear them. All police helicopters are equipped with them. All i can hear where i live is Fire dispatch, I cant even hear the fire fighters responses .

Hit the scan button and it will come out of the weather band and start trunking again.

The Philadelphia area has likely moved to trunked radio systems in the 800MHz band, and your scanner is not capable of receiving such signals, so you'll be limited in what you can tune in with your PRO-2033.

NO. Sorry, but the PRO-97 is an analog trunking scanner, and it is not capable of receiving any digital signals. For more information on this scanner, you can download and print the factory manual, at no cost, here:

The PRO-2055 is a versatile conventional/trunking scanner, but it does not have the capability to monitor APCO-25 digital transmissions. For an operating manual that is "Easier To Read" than the factory operating instructions, follow this link:

no there are no adjustments, you need to check to make sure tha tthe pro-95 you have is compatible with the trunking system in your area, i have the same problem with my pro-97 problem is just the codec that they use is too new for one of my scanners and the only way to listen in is to have the radio scan all output channels that arent control channels or transmitting all time

My Uniden Bearcat BC 147 XLT will not broadcast. I have unplugged and reset it and installed new codes but, still nothing. What can I do?

Open up the squelch

are u police.scan them

try going to a urban area and scanning the NOAA band. if that works your programming is wrong and there is nothing wrong with your AM/FM base band. also the BNC antenna connector on the inside is notorious for breaking away from the board, nothing a little solder cant handle. Also make sure your local freq's are not Digital
