How to troubleshoot scanning on a Windows 10 Sentinel machine? What to do about a hum sound on an SDS-200? What impact will the passing of Paul Opitz at Uniden have on future scanner quality? Will Phil ever do an IceCast setup tutorial for Windows or Linux? Would Phil recommend Butel software for a beginner? What is the best antenna to use for your house without breaking the bank? Is there a known issue with the Radio Shack Pro 197 resetting its memory? How is the SDR class coming along? Does DSD support trunking? Can you fly with any of your scanning equipment? How can using quick keys benefit you? Is there a database to identify non-voice signals on scanners? What to do if you get an “Unknown” error? Are there certain settings to pay attention to, like filters, to improve your audio quality?
