Might pay to stick a multimeter across the shared antenna and see if
there's voltage on it. Id think the scanner would have dc blocking
capacitor on the input though...<br>
<br>
Id also be trying an SDR on that antenna too.<br>

Depends on a few things.. First I'd check is do the auckFire 1 and
2 work on the 15X? If not then your receiver has some issues. If
it does then I'd put a splitter in line so the two radios are
sharing the same aerial... Compare the two screens ie if the 15X
RX light/signal meter is showing a signal then I'd ask if the 15X
receives anything on VHF/UHF - if not I'd look at the speaker of
the 15X<br>
<br>
If it does receive VHF/UHF but nothing in the ESA band, then I'd
be thinking the 15X doesn't like ESA and further investigation
would need to be done with someone to see if it's internal
interference inside the 15X causing you grief. Or is it an
external interference - ie we had a customer that was getting
interference on an I-band link or the VHF repeater.. They used
CTCSS so didn't hear the interference but it ended up being
someones failing TV aerial amplifier in their mast

<div>I get zero reception of Waikato Rural on my Uniden
BCT15X which is attached to an outdoor aerial. (Not sure
what kind as it's a shared one for the apartment, but it's
for television usually).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>However, on a flimsy little wire aerial in my apartment
bedroom which is surrounded by concrete, I get it strength
4/5 on an old Uniden handheld.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Any idea on settings or anything I could change to get
it on the BCT15X?</div>
<div><br>

<div>Seems odd to me.</div>
