I am a casual scanner guy who bought a HomePatrol1 about a year ago. I
had not used it in a few months, but I had been receiving all the DCFD
TRS channels at that time. This weekend I decided to fire it up again,
and about the first thing I did was update the database and firmware.
Now none of the DCFD trunked channels are being received, only the VHF
simulcast of the dispatch channel. I am receiving other trunked systems
for all the nearby jurisdictions, but not DCFD. I have tried reloading
the data base and reset the receiver, but the problem remains. I am an
IT guy, so I immediately suspect the integrity of the data or code
update. I checked RR DB change history and there were updates made to
this specific service the night before the latest release (9/15),
although no specifics are provided. Frankly, I am not 100% sure this
issue did not exist before I flashed the firmware and updated the
database, so I wanted to check with this group to make sure there had
not been some other change in the DCFD TRS.
Thanks for your interest and assistance!
