I just received a scanner as a Christams present this past winter and I have used it quite often, but one thing that really frustrates me is the one channel I would like to use it for doesn't come in for some reason. I am hoping someone can help. Ok, I live in Apple Valley, Minnesota and spend a lot of my trainwatching time down along BNSF's St. Croix Subdivsion along the Mississippi River(Beautiful area). I have all the channels entered into my scanner for the area and can pick up every one except for channel 39 #160.6950 which happens to be the BNSF St Croix line. I just get a constant squelch and no matter how I adjust it, the squelch stays the same, but it's not the same type of squelch as all the other channels, it's just a constant quit squelch. I can constantly hear people talking in the background, but it is so unclear, I can't make out what they are saying. What's really annoying is I can hear talking across the river on CP Rails River line and even talk 100 miles away in the Twin Cities really clear, but I can't pick up a defect detector that is 4 miles away on the BNSF St Croix line. I have a Uniden Sport Cat scanner if that helps. I will call up Uniden, but I was just wondering if anyone esle had had this problem and been able to fix it. Thanks alot for the help.
