Will this scanner work for DMR?

[mgroen95]

I have zero experience with DMR scanning and i was wondering if this scanner https://powerwerx.com/anytone-atd868uv-dmr-dual-band-handheld will work for DMR scanning i will be using it to scan the new tecumseth fire tac and dispatch channels {see attachment}. any help with this would be greatly appreciated. TIA

I should work, however, keep in mind that the Anytone is NOT a scanner. It's a cheap Chinese two way. I've not had good luck with Anytone.

I own this radio for amateur and other DMR two-way use. It works quite well. As pointed out by someone else, it is not a scanner. It can be programmed to scan but it is an exercise in frustration to do so. It should work for your needs as long as those channels do not get encrypted.

Thank you for the help and quick response, does anyone have any recommendations on a cheap DMR scanner that will work for me?

Another fairly cheap option is to modify your BCT15X (I read your other post )

What you would do is to add a wire to the circuit board to a point marked DISC, (for Discriminator) from that wire a resistor would be soldered to it. The resistor would be soldered to an audio jack. You would run a mono audio cable from there to your computer. Install a DSD+ software program. With the frequency programmed into the 15X you could run that audio through DSD+ and listen through the audio from your computer.

If you have a Sayal Electronics within a reasonable drive you could pick up the parts needed for around $10-20.(That is a local reference for the original poster as I see that Americans are also participating in the thread)


You may have spare wire or audio cable lying around. The software is free.
