• To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:

    Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.

    If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.

    To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.

    The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.

    For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).

    This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

I have the afore mentioned radio and I am doing well with the APCO Phase 25 p 2 talkgroups. But I find myself in the need to monitor a couple of NDXN talk groups outside my normal area of operations, ie. a town I usually do not go visit. The question is, can my radio hear and decode NXDN transmissions?

Thanks

Absolutely not. If you want to monitor NXDN conventional stuff, you need either a newer Uniden scanner or a Kenwood NX series radio.

If it's a NXDN Trunked system, only a scanner can monitor it, such as the Uniden 436/536 HP or SDS 100/200 series. No commercial radio can passively monitor NXDN trunked systems.

...or an AOR AR DV-1 or DV-10 if you want to shell out $1000 for modes you may not need :ROFLMAO: (no trunk tracking though)
But in reality you can achieve this with a $30.00 RTL SDR dongle paired with DSDPlus if you don't mind being confined to a laptop/tablet
