Bct15x Stopped Picking Up Frequencies
While I was checking out my scanner. The different menu options and settings etc. It stopped picking up anything. It won't even pick up the local weather frequency. I thought maybe I turned something off or did something to mess it up. Don't know if it just decided to crap out on me at the same time or what. ?? I factory reset it. Then reprogrammed some frequencies hoping it would start working again... Nope!!! Anyone else ever have this problem? And a good solution? Thanks
