Hi Guys,
Just wondering if it is possible to set or "lock on" to one particular control channel when scanning the GRN on a ubcd396t instead of letting the scanner find the control channel itself.
I'm in Penrith and find that the scanner will often select the control channel for the Kurrajong GRN site which has terrible reception for me. When it selects the Glenbrook control channel the reception is perfect. I was hoping there would be a way to have it always select the Glenbrook channel.
Also does anyone know what type of cable is required to connect the ubcd396t to a computer? I have lost the original one that came with the scanner and don't know what to ask for or google to get a replacement.
Many thanks!

I would just delete the Penrith control channel frequency from the list in the scanner.
Uniden Aust will be able to sell you a new programming cable.

The original programming cable uses a Hirose MQ172X-4SA-CV(50) connector on the scanner end, and a DE9 RS-232 connector on the computer end.panrid67 wrote: Also does anyone know what type of cable is required to connect the ubcd396t to a computer?

Uniden did produce a USB Programming Cable (the USB-1) for use on computers without RS-232 connectors, but I believe it has been superseded.
