Receiving all D08 channels here at my location in Carrum Downs.
D08 does have some digital fireground channels now but still use the analogue voting channels for dispatch.

Do you have any electrical devices near your scanner that may be causing the interference?
Try a process of elimination and turn things off or move the scanner and see if the interference decreases or stops.

There have been a few issues with the voting system over the last couple of weeks and Comms have been working on it. I think it was only one channel that had the issue.
