Doesn't look like there was one for the 5th either. 12/29 is my last.
I did get an update for the 5th but I uninstalled and re-installed and when it updated, it only went to the 29th. I don't know what is going on. Don't think I've seen it do that before.
i got the 5th update but nothing since, I do realize this was around UPman's passing so I don't want to sound like I'm complaining
They seem to have moved to a 2 week update interval, maybe that'll be the new normal.. Or at least for a while.. Only thing to do is wait and see what comes..

Sentinel Database hasn't updated in two weeks.
The SDS100 Sentinel program is showing a database update of 12/29/2019, is this correct? I would certainly hope that this is just a fluke and that I can't connect to the database at the moment. This is not like the database to not be updated weekly. When I go to update it says that the database...
Both the HP-1/2 Sentinel and the x36HP/SDS version received updates dated 1/5 for me.
I'm not sure why some did not get the 1/5 update for the SDS models as it was there unless they pulled it for some unknown reason.
I can remember an HP-1 update being pulled and reverted back to the earlier week once after corrupt data was found to be causing problems for some users. That was a long time back though and well before the x36HP version was ever developed.
As was mentioned in the thread that @fxdscon linked, the entire RR database went down somewhere around 9 PM or so last Sunday evening. It was down all night until Monday morning. Uniden does their DB pulls late Sunday night or very early on Monday so they would not have been able to pull the DB for this weeks update.
Providing there are no DB issues this Sunday night, I suspect we will see an updated version come this Monday with a date of 01/19/2020.

Just did an update and got the 5th. Strange.

Looking for the Uniden Sentinel update this week. I'm scared that when Paul died, so will the attention to scanners. It's hard to get people to pay $649 for an SDS100 when they don't regularly update the database.

As has been mentioned several times, the RR database was down when the automated database pull by Uniden servers from RR was scheduled last Sunday night. The next automated pull will be next Sunday night, and will be available through Sentinel Monday.

Same thing for me, I checked before I posted earlier and was still at 12/29 saying it was current. Then tried last night and got 1/5.
