Use a add on wifi, 20-40 bucks. Same for BT.
You mean I finally have to trade in my 1973 Pinto that I bought new? Unless UPMan is actually Nostradamus, or Uniden intentionally designed the 200 with a known flaw, there's no way to know now what's happening years down the road.
Depending on how this afternoon goes I hope to get a little video footage recorded of VHF Rail reception and hopefully this weekend some VHF aircraft reception. *Hopefully*

I noticed in the video the squelch is set at 7. Seems pretty high
People would then complain that they were "forced" to pay for a feature they didn't need or want.

It could be, maybe conditions warrant a high setting.
Settings of 1, 2, 3 ... are kind of arbitrary anyway. Maybe 50 is as tight as it gets. We'll find out more I'm sure.

I know this is a "mobile" scanner, but many of us will keep it on our desks. I wish there was feet, possibly stationary rear feet with flip down front feet to keep the scanner at a angle for easy viewing, even a flip down bail in the front would be nice. The mobile mount on the desk is not visibly appealing

I agree, I hate the look of the mobile mount on any scanner. I assume that bracket is removable. Then you can just buy little plastic feet at the hardware store and stick them on the bottom. I have done that with some of my previous scanners.

I own GRE/Whistler Scanners so this is some good natured ribbing.

The bracket is indeed removable. You can do exactly what you lay out above should you wish.

Hello,
I suspect it will have the same function as the micro-USB on the SDS-100.

Like previous, bracket comes NOT attached, also 4 of the feet are included. It's been this way since day1 of DIN size Uniden scanners.
Looks like a double DIN. Very nice, but I was really hoping for a full size desk top model.
FYI the SDS200 is currently $749.95 at Universal Radio plus $14.95 Flat Rate Shipping: Uniden Bearcat SDS200 Scanner
Overpriced and I do not recommend it.

The giant silver knob looks awkward. Lack of remote head is disappointing. DMR/NXDN "licensing" is a scam IMHO. Keypad looks good. Audio sounded good in the YouTube clip. $499 would be a no-brainer, $549 tops. $600's to $700's is a stretch. Maybe if all the "upgrades" were included, $599 could be justified.
