I moved this post from the DMR discussions here to to software discussion threads since one of the moderators feels that software should not be discussed in the DMR thread.
But for many of us, Sentinel has become an integral part of using out 436 and 536 units, and I certainly understand why folks are hesitant to get involved manually programming DMR systems into their radios.
Butel is already supporting DMR in his latest software for the 436 and 536 units. My fear is that the necessary upgrade to Sentinel by Uniden to support DMR may fall into the same abyss as the Android app did for the aforementioned units.
Having purchased a number of license keys for my 436 and 536 units, I think it would be incumbent upon Uniden to get cracking with updating the software to cover the new firmware. I know that I am not alone here--- I've read many posts where folks are holding off on getting involved with the DMR firmware (even though they have also purchased their keys), waiting for Uniden to update Sentinel.
