Just put on a new antenna. Let me know if you notice a difference in the reception. Might have to do some tweaking if anyone notices a problem.

new antenna sounds good here but still some static but i think this is normal or could be their squelch settings too maybe i will have to listen more to really see if picking up more and i noticed the seconds are like 255 to 257 not sure if it is supposed to be like that or not to let you know but the sound is clearer now

Just curious as to what type of antenna you installed and type of cable used.

I am back to the original antenna that came with the scanner. The one I bought didn't do the job I thought it would.

Is it a rubber ducky or outdoor which would give better performance.
