Isnt that always the problem?Could be an antenna-size and location issue if you're only using the rubber ducky.
I just got one transmission on the 154.370. Should I be using roam or scan?
Probably, it was some type of power outage. This is so frustrating. I can get a weather channel, that's about it. Not sure what to do with the programming cable to be honest
I will look into it tomorrow. Quick google search says Chirp is not compatible with DMR, even if the radio is capable of analog, but that was a couple posts from 2020. Maybe things have changed?If you can get CHIRP installed and the cable working, it's much easier to program a radio like that. It's closer to filling out a spreadsheet; instead of pushing buttons and navigating cryptic backscreens on the radio.

Nope. All of Rome/Floyd County first responders are using a 800MHz trunking system, there is no analog push anymore. There is a capability to revert to analog, but that would only occur if the 800 system imploded.Looking closer at the database for Floyd County ""All Agencies have switched to the Rome/Floyd County Public Safety DTRS". There's a very slim chance they still have the analog up, but it's very slim.
Most public safety radios are using encryption to keep folks from listening in.Just bought one of these things and I can't find any conversation anywhere. Mainly interested in listening in to local fire/police. I believe the one I bought will be capable of most anything but I am lost as last years Easter egg. I know nothing. If anyone can get me up and running, please let me know. Thanks.
