Will the Whistler TRX-1 work with Unitrunker?

looks like the webpage was last updated 2015. Since Unitrunker works for the GRE 800, might work for the TRX-1.
You could always give it a try.

I am starting to work on this, but wondering if there is some settings that I might need to change in the scanner setting.
Unitrunker worked just fine with my WS-1088 when I got it a couple years ago... no reason it shouldn't work with a TRX-1.
Unitrunker should automatically switch it into CC-Dump mode. Park the scanner on an unused TG so the CC data is not interrupted. Should work fine.

Will you please explain how to set up the receiver when using TRX-1?

TRX-1 has an IF output setting
From the link you provided see the link on the left hand side of the page to GRE PSR-800. It will take you to this web page: UniTrunker | PSR-310 | PSR-410 | PSR-500 | PSR-600 | PSR-700 | PSR-800
Unitrunker will work with the IF output from the GRE PSR-800. The TRX-1 provides the same IF output. Page 47 of the TRX-1 manual.

I'd love to... but I have to figure it out again myself... got a new PC since then and my configuration is lost... and it's time for dinner and to finish the Cubs game. I'll figure it out tomorrow!
Whistler and Unitrunker
Just set the scanner with the IF output from the menu.
Then do a limit search and hold on the control channel.
Plug a cord from the headphone jack of the scanner to your computer's input.
Run Unitrunker and have it set for discriminator tap input.

Sorry this took so long... yes, I'm using UniTrunker with my TRX-1 as we speak.
- Connect your (powered off) TRX to your PC... wait, and make sure they're communicating (set the scanner time to PC time in EZScan).
- Once you're sure they're communicating, check Device Manager for the Com port they're using.
- Turn on the scanner, set PC/IF CC Dump on, park on an unused TG, then run UniTrunker.
- Click the + sign to add a new receiver, select WS1080, set the Com port from Device Manager, 9600, 8, 1, none.
- Boom, done... a new window should open and you'll see the traffic activity.
Thank you so much, late is better than never. Got it up and working in minutes after you posted!!!!
That's awesome... glad I could help!
