ICOM IC-R6 is scanning very slow. 1 frequency in 2 second, not 100 frequencies in 1 second. Where is problem ? How to change speed of scanning in IC_R6 ?

The Fix Programming via CS-R6 with Windows 10 made the problem. Scanning was very slow. The CS-R6 program through Windows 10 made problems with the scanning speed - it became very slow, one frequency in 2 seconds instead of 100 frequencies in one second. Through programming CS-R6 on Windows 7, the scanning speed returned to the corresponding one in the ICOM instructions - 100 frequencies per second

I have a cobra 29 LX BT. It turns on but I can't get any of the buttons to work. The dials seem to work but I'm not sure since I don't know much about cb radios. Any help is appreciated.

Hi, Please double check that your device has new batters or is charged up properly. Then, you would need to have a means of testing the device through instructions from a third party like a radio station/center or other organizations that broadcast to devices like your own. To further learn how to use your device, you can peruse it's manual. Thank you.

I have a Fermax Intercom 986000 and no longer have a internal 'buzz' when someone is at the front door?

Question edited for clarity. Question moved from Cars and Trucks to Intercoms. Contact the maker. It is likely that the buzzer sounder has failed, or the power to it. You say you "looked at the wiring diagram", I couldn't find one. I guess you meant the 'circuit board'. https://www.fermax.com/uk/technical-support ..

On my Galaxy Saturn, I'm getting a carrier on SSB.

  1. It sounds like you're experiencing an issue with your SSB (Single Sideband) transmission on your Galaxy Saturn radio, where you're getting a carrier signal when you're on SSB mode. One possible solution to this problem is to adjust the carrier balance on your radio. The carrier balance is a control that adjusts the level of the carrier signal in relation to the sidebands (the audio information) in the SSB transmission. By adjusting the carrier balance, you can eliminate or reduce the carrier signal and improve the clarity of the audio. The VR (variable resistor) that you need to adjust to adjust the carrier balance depends on the specific model of your Galaxy Saturn radio. It's best to consult the radio's manual or check the schematic diagram to locate the VR that controls the carrier balance. When you turn your inline amp on, the carrier is amplified to about 700-800 on SSB, which is about 85% of the total output power of the Texas Star DX1200. This can cause distortion on SSB transmission and can cause splatter on the adjacent frequency. It's important to properly adjust the carrier balance, as well as the power output and microphone gain, to ensure that your SSB transmissions are clean and clear. It's also recommended to check for any other adjustments such as Microphone Gain and Power output. It's always recommended to seek help from a professional radio technician if you are unsure or cannot find the VR. Please note that the information provided is based on my knowledge cut-off date and it may not be current.

Rino 650 ppt button not working

If the PPT (Push-To-Talk) button on your Rino 650 is not working, there are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Check the battery: Make sure that the battery is fully charged and properly installed in the device.
  2. Check the settings: Make sure that the device is set to the correct frequency and that the PTT button is configured correctly in the settings.
  3. Check the physical button: Make sure that the PTT button is not stuck or damaged in any way.
  4. Check for software updates: Make sure that your device has the latest software updates installed.
  5. Check for interference: Make sure that your device is not too close to other electronic devices that may be causing interference.
  6. Check the programming: Make sure that the device is properly programmed with the correct settings, including the correct channels and frequencies.
  7. Check if the device is in a low power mode, if so, switch it to high power mode.
If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you may need to contact the manufacturer or a professional technician for further assistance. It's recommended to check the user manual of your device before trying any of the above steps, as the process of troubleshooting a PTT button can vary depending on the model and manufacturer.

I just received a Uniden Bearcat handheld scanner model BCD325P2.

all it can do is in the manual. 2015 made new. all those safety channels frequencies are regulator by FCC.gov and are published here they are, first google hit ,amazing. https://www.radioreference.com/db/browse/stid/12 keep in mind some 800MHz transmitters (gov) are encrypted trunking mode radios, (like police is) in my town text, the HAM band 2meters has full time weather brocast (I have HT and HF here) our RAD does 25mHZ to 900mHz bands all stated in the manual below. page 129 covers the public service bands starting at 758.0125 MH vhf and uhv is line if site comms so that is why there are so many stations. (broad casting) best is try the closet one first. a better antenna , is what to use. what kinds of safety data do you need, not told fire, police , amber alerts, weather, road reports, and lots more what you want not told. but you can find it if you google that, in clear simple text. for sure. by county is best. as it is line of site. police bands are trunked and have are networked sites to overcome line of site issues,. (magic) and is encrypted.(and ******* to hack btw) broadcast is site by site and 20 miles max (aprox) but station power in watts is prime there, and no 2 stations are the same, (rare) set the radio to scan them all , see what it finds.? be patient. or look up what you want googled. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/952528/Uniden-Bcd325p2.html?page=129#manual good luck and happy DX'ing.
