Re: Shooting in Oakland OMG
Heard OPD calling in and tailing a group of OMG the other day. Didn't think law enforcement did that anymore, but evidently they do. And I guess I can see why.

NACs and 396T Scanning
I've been reading a little about NACs and am a little confused and can't find anything on the forums.

Or are NACs just something that makes listening to them easi...

Re: Bait Car SDPD.
"Hope some of the "captures" make it to video. Other TV shows in the past have put them on the air. it sure is funny watching and listening as the crooks trying to figure out what is happening. Love watching the "bad guys" getting caught!

FPS
I happened to be scanning FPS the other day and thought I heard unit 947 calling Denver. Did I miss something or are they remotely dispatched?

Re: BCD396T 3.02.02.scn
I was so involved in trying to get the firmware updated, as well as frustrated, that I couldn't do much of anything else at the time. However I'm scanning now that I finally got through that! Listening, now, while doing some reading and paperwork.

Re: BCD396T 3.02.02.scn
Tks Brian and w6kru. I completed both of your suggestions and praise the Lord my computer and scanner have been saved! They don't know how close they came to getting it right in the processor.
