I'm very interested in hearing the PD's in my area. They are on NEXEDGE.
I'm very fluent in Linux and have no problem using / installing DSD software. I also have no problem installing a discriminator.
So here's the scoop. I'm trying to get my sons interested in the hobby of scanning and we just want to try to get what we basically need.
I know the PD here has gone digital using NEXEDGE, and I assume we'll need a trunk scanner because there is a control channel.
My question is does the DSD software enable us to get by with a standard non digital trunking scanner so that we can just use a linux box to listen? (of course we don't know if the signal is encrypted)
Just curious if I need digital trunk or standard trunk if using the software.
All advice appreciated.
Thanks
