The Bcd996XT has two Leds on front left side between Vol and SQL Knob.
Top one looks blue bottom red. 
Never seen niether light up. No mention of them in documentation for scanner.
Also no mention or controls seen in Free Scan Software or Butel ARC XT software.
Saw a video on you tube of this scanner in operation scanning boston area. Leds were dark in video too.  Anybody know when or how they are used ? 
Thought I saw blue one blink once when close call was detected !

If you get a Close Call hit they will light up. Personally speaking I have had my 996 for years now and they are basically useless.

I was told by a tech the alert light only works on the national weather alerts, but may be flagable for other alerts . Havn't found any referance in any of the manuals tho... Ron
