How to update bcd436hp Videos

Hello,I just received my 436hp in the mail the other day and I was doing a update of the data base to my radio and I clicked on something I have no idea what it was my screen switched so quick I didn't see what it was but whatever happen I think my SD card got ruined, can I just go but a new SD card and if I do can I just put it in my radio and have it work or do I have to do a programming process in order for the new SD card to work.

I see no difference in range but it seems like p25 digital here in illinois is louder.

Question, is this device 800mhz? If not, do you know of any portable 800mhz?

I have a BCD436HP and so far I love it. My only problem is that I have created 6 different favorite lists with the Sentinnel Software. If I don't use the software it won't let me get all of the channels for the each groups that I want. I have Spartanburg Co. Sheriffs Office, Spartanburg Co. EMS, Spartanburg Co. Fire, South Carolina Highway Patrol Troop 3, Town PD, and Sptbg City Police and Fire. I've already written to scanner and the only groups that will scan and broadcast are the county fire channels. I don't understand why the other groups aren't scanning. I have already set all of them to scan and still there is no change. I'm at the end of my rope please someone help! Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

Hi there k4dps I found a new p25 frequency for my local state patrol and am wanting to program it to my radio,the part I'm confused about is it is p25:71E is the system and I'm not sure how to go about programming that in.do I do it under a p25 trunked,or p25 one frequency I don't believe it is a p25 X2 tdma the frequency is 171.9875 however the frequency is not listed on RR which is odd in a way to me, I'm still getting to know certain stuff so that's why I'm asking,any help would be great Thank you

Hi again k4dps,well I recieved my 436hp yesterday and I made a couple mistakes when I was trying to get it programmed and I would like to reset my radio but how do I clear the SD card of the current storage I put in it?I haven't been able to find how I can reformat the SD card.I do appreciate ur time from all the questions I have previously asked.

Have a question for you. I have created a favorites list as per your video. When I go into the favorites list to delete some channels from it when I go to listen to the playlist I still see some of the channels I deleated. What am I doing wrong?

I live in Australia and am wondering if both the BCD996XT and the BCD436HP are available in this country, we have just gone P25 digital here in the State of Victoria with our country CFA fire brigade so we will have to change our scanners to digital as they are phasing out analogue.

Hi again k4dps, I keep comin up with questions about this radio.can u have multiple favorite lists scanning at the same time? 

Will it work in Australia?

is this a digital scanner?

Things have gone from bad to terrible! First : Why do I need to upgrade to the extreme upgrade if I purchased Home Patrol-2? Also I uploaded my firm ware once again and now I get the message All Channels in range have been avoided! I review avoids and get NONE AVOIDED! and now I can't even select service types nothing high lights and nothing activates! I even put in a zip code 30 miles away and STILL get all channels in range have been avoided! I have increased my range to max!

I have updated the uniden Home patrol's data base from my computer and still don't get any trunked system police calls! Do you happen to know what system Peoria County is using? Is it Arlington as you use in your info video?

Thank you for your answer and help! How do I purchase extreme upgrade from uniden! I had no idea there was such a thig! I've watched all the videos on operations and programing with no mention of this!

yes I bought 2 at radio shack! I specifically bought them because my hometown(Bartonville, Illinois) was switching to a trunking system! They are the only one in this area to switch! That is the only city I want to listen to! I haven't heard a thing on Bartonville since middle August of 2014! Please help me! I have searched everywhere trying to remedy this problem!

Where do I obtain my registration code! I wasn't provided one!

I just ordered this scanner today. I'm a little nervous to say the least. Anyway, which of your videos do you think would help me the most for a beginner. You know a BCD436HP for beginners :). Thanks in advance!!

You, sir, have wonderful videos. Thank you for the high quality, I have learned a great deal from them. They are so well done, you have a gift - thank you for using it.

Can you operate the radio while charging?

Why does the BCD436HP not come with a power unit just batteries..seems there would be a lot of time not scanning but replacing or charging your batteries 

does it still get Belleville PD 1 EssexCounty

nice video. is that a 996xt or 996p2 hiding behind that 436?

I noticed that you have Cape May County, NJ in this radio. Did you use it in Cape May County yet? How about Atlantic County, NJ? I'm trying to find a new scanner radio that will receive newer radio broadcasts.

Please explain, what's pt1 and pt0

how much did you pay for this scanner?you just enter youre zip code and thats it?when you enter your zip code how many towns away does it program it for?thanks

Which sounds better to you the 436 or the 536 ?

Should I get this instead of the 996xt?
