Both will. However, if you happen to be monitoring one of the simulcast cells you may or may not have issues because scanners were not designed to handle simulcast systems well. As a general rule though, the SD system is Phase II P25 and your scanners will handle them.

I see you're in Sioux Falls, which is simulcast. I live in a burb and haven't had any simulcast issues because I'm not between any sites so one site is very strong. If you're in Sioux Falls proper and are in the midst of multiple sites with equal signal, you may experience the simulcast issue. Uniden SDS100 or SDS200 scanners minimize the issue, though they're pricey.
