Does the HP-2 have ability to user adjust P25 decode like the 436... As in "manual" instead of a default or auto decode setting?

Thanks.
Where I am, adjusting the P25 Threshold Mode and Threshold Level is critical to proper decoding of a p25 phase 1/2 simulcast system on the 436. Manual 7 is the sweet spot.
I tried an HP-1 not long after they were released, and I returned it because it could not decode the audio on this simulcast system - as far as I know the HP-1 did not have user defined p25 settings.
But I love the form factor of the HP, so I may try the Hp-2. I hope it has improved digital decode!

So the HP1 does not have a manual P25 adjustment but the HP2 does.?
I'm running Firmware Version 2.06 on my HP-1
So, why has this adjustment been a "hidden" feature? Did I miss something?

The XTs already have this setting.

Yes - all the XT's have had this since day 1, adjustable on a per site basis (as needed to function well).
The HP 1-2 version was mainly for testing. Since it resets at power cycling it's rather impractical.
Nope, the XT's never had anything more than the "hidden menu" settings but nothing per site.
The T models did have the manual setting since day one. Perhaps you are confusing the T models with the XT models.
The Manual P25 settings were removed when the XT series were released.
You're right (T models with the XT models.) - too many radios
Nice find.The HP-1 does have P25 adjustment. Select Menu - then Audio Options . While in Audio Options menu press and hold the right bottom screen. You will see that area change to grey - hold for 2-3 seconds and the P25 Menu should appear. Holding the area once again will add P25 Logging : ON
Can someone please explain a little more about adjusting the P25 decoding levels? Would it help me to receive a channel that I can receive on my Pro-96 but rarely comes in on my HP-1 even when the radios are side by side?
7 is definitely the sweat spot for simulcast systems. Is there anyway of making this the default setting or do you have to do it every time you turn the scanner on?The HP-1 does have P25 adjustment.
