[Scan-DC] dropped transmissions muttgummery

[Robert H. Eisner]

I've noticed that on various Uniden scanners recently.
I've been running my Uniden SDS100 & BCD536HP side by side with my Whistler TRX-1.   
I've noticed that both Uniden starts missing transmissions when the system gets very busy.  
I've put all 3 scanners on hold on the PD District 4 TG and noticed that the TRX-1 logs every transmission, but the both Uniden will drop one occasionally.

 All,
Has anyone who listens to the muttgummery county trunked system noticed the occasional missed transmission - ie, a unit will apparently call in but you don't hear them call, but the dispatcher acknowledges them, or something similar?

A couple of us have noticed this occasionally, and it happens _even when your receiver is locked on a talkgroup_ - so it's not scanning delay or anything like that.  It also seems to happen with both Uniden and Radio Shack / GRE scanners... a couple of us have noticed this and were talking about it last night... not sure what to attribute it to... what... to...

anyone else?  any thoughts?
thx
