How to improve Uniden UBC3500XLT reception?
If you are experiencing improper reception on your Uniden Radio, consider the following: * Check the antenna connection or try moving or repositioning the antenna. * Try moving the scanner to a different location. * If you are in a remote area, you might need an optional multi-band antenna. Consult with your dealer or a local electronics store.
What to do if the Uniden Radio scan won’t start?
If your Uniden Radio scan won’t start, be sure to press the Scan button. Also, adjust the squelch threshold and verify that the channels you want to scan are not locked out. Finally, check the antenna connection.
Why won’t my Uniden UBC3500XLT scan stop?
If your Uniden Radio scan won’t stop, try adjusting the squelch threshold and check the antenna connection. Ensure that the channels you want to scan are not locked out and the channel’s frequency is stored in the scanner’s memory. You should also wait for a transmission on the channel.
What to do if my Uniden UBC3500XLT Radio has improper reception?
For improper reception on your Uniden Radio, check the antenna connection and try moving or repositioning the antenna. You can also try moving the scanner.
Why won't my Uniden Radio scan stop?
There are several possible reasons why your Uniden Radio scan won't stop: 1. The squelch may need adjustment. 2. The antenna connection might need to be checked. 3. One or more channels could be locked out, so ensure the channels you want to scan are not locked out. 4. The channel’s frequency may not be stored in memory, so ensure it is stored. 5. The channel might not be active; wait for a transmission on the channel.
What to do if my Uniden UBC3500XLT scan won’t start?
Several factors can prevent your Uniden Radio from starting a scan: * You must press the Scan button to initiate scanning. * The squelch may need adjustment. * One or more channels might be locked out, so ensure the channels you want to scan are not locked out. * The antenna connection might need to be checked.
