    Why Channel Activity Indicators are flashing but no sound is heard on Uniden BC796D APC0 25 Scanner?
    • D
      David MorganSep 12, 2025
      If Channel Activity Indicators are flashing but no sound is heard on your Uniden Scanner, it may be a telephone interconnect call, which are intentionally blocked by your scanner. Also, the ID on your display may not be active.

      If your Uniden Scanner won't stop during Scan List mode, it could be because no IDs have been programmed or the IDs you have stored are not active.

    Why DATA sound is heard at the beginning of digital communications on Uniden BC796D APC0 25 Scanner?
    • M
      Matthew GutierrezSep 7, 2025
      If you hear a DATA sound at the beginning of digital communications on your Uniden Scanner, it could be because APCO project 25 systems can send data before voice communication, or the data sound can be heard when signal strength is weak.

      If you are missing replies to conversations on your Uniden Scanner, you can: 1. Change to a Type 1 scanner setup. 2. Try another Preset Fleet Map or Program your own Fleet Map. 3. Check to see that all of the systems frequencies have been entered.

    How to fix Uniden Scanner that won't work?

      Julie WrightAug 20, 2025
      If the Uniden Scanner won't work, verify the AC adapter connections at both ends. Ensure the wall switch for the outlet is turned on, as it might control the outlet. If the issue persists, try plugging the AC adapter into a different wall outlet.
