no errors, it lands on a signal but all I hear is static
different kinds of static
so there's something there
try a different signal range perhapse?
I just hear distortion
I've tried 125-130mhz
maybe its encrypted or some shit
and 445-460
and you need a special thing to decrypt the static
how do they do radio freq encryption
I was thinking maybe these channels are empty
because it's past midnight
a lot of these are businesses
but I've been scanning since 11pm
surely something would come through
especially a lot of them are taxis
idk maaaaannn
I asked /out/ and /k/, no one replied really lel

It's just a scanner, not a transceiver
is this a chink scanner?
that you're using..
No, radio shack originally
rebadged for the Uk
I always thought Realistic was an American brand tbh
Yeah, it probably is, it just pops up as a radio shack scanner more often than most
Ah, I see
@zero what do you usually troubleshoot? PCs?
no, it was more of a joke, i just jimmy-rig shit usually,
got a manual radio
trying to modify to a shortwave
i've got zero experience with radios other than propper radio communication ettiquette
i'm still looking around to see if there's any similar problems with other radios not picking up anything
I should have had the guy show me how to use it
I just got out of there as fast as I could
reading the manual now, brb
Good luck
the actual troubleshooting for these things online feels very limited
because ham radio guys are all troubleshooting for each other on radio
right, I can do this
