WRKN318

Yes! I can enter a frequency, but the exit key does not do anything. So after I put in a frequency then what?? I can't find any explanation anywhere for this, not even on Miklor radio. Ok apparently we can't scan in frequency mode.

Good day to you all!, I just purchased my BTECH GMRS-V1 radio. Sure is a puzzle.... lol anyway I am wondering if I can scan while in FREQUENCY MODE ? when I hold the *scan button down a couple of seconds and I get a message (RANGE ----:---- ) The only way to get rid of this is to turn off my radio and back on again. I can get it to scan in "CHANNEL MODE" ok . I'm just curious is all. Thank you for your input and help!

Good day WRJX754, thanks for the input. I do get static when it scans only on certain channels. I did purchase a better antenna (longer) it is a NAGOYA NA-771 I believe it is around 15" long. Thank you for the link I'll check it out. Tried the link I got a error 404 page not found. have a great day!

Hello to all, thank you for having me. I am a newbie to this hobby. I have had walkie talkies, but never serious. Just received my GMRS license and purchased a BTech - GMRS -V1 radio. I live in northern central lower peninsula. I charged my battery and turned on this radio expecting to hear some chatter, but to no avail nothing. I did manage to program NOAA . So my question I have is setting the squelch higher does this make static less or more. I notice scanning it stops and there is a lot of static. I have it set on 5 . Thank you for your input this is WRKN318 out!!!
