    SDS100/SDS200: SDS200 Weird issue

    Try what I suggested here, as I'm not sure who/what they programmed for you.

    SDS100/SDS200: SDS200 Weird issue

    This is the Beaverdale site you're not hearing? https://www.radioreference.com/db/site/33654 This is the site you are hearing? https://www.radioreference.com/db/site/41529 These sites have two different sets of frequencies, and two different NAC's assigned.

    SDS100/SDS200: SDS200 Weird issue

    If I understand what you have there, you're scanning 2 sites? Are they separately assigned under the System/ site tab? Can you attach your programming here and let me have a look at it?

    SDS100/SDS200: SDS200 Weird issue

    Yes, let's say I add a Favorite List and don't assign a Quick Key. When I Write it back to the scanner, that Favorite List will "go crazy" if I have only 1 Quick Key assigned (#1), the new Favorite List does not will scan until I give it a Quick Key. I use Quick Keys in my programming and as I...

    SDS100/SDS200: SDS200 Weird issue

    Correct...the frequencies you see are from another site that's either not in range, not producing control channel data, or the control channel frequencies aren't programmed. Since you're unable to isolate the site via Quick Keys, you'll continue to see these errant frequencies pop up in the...

    SDS100/SDS200: SDS200 Weird issue

    The frequencies coming up are not affiliated with the site. This would lead me to believe somewhere in the scanners programming, these frequencies were added as another site, or as a conventional system and are not assigned a Quick Key as I mentioned. When you add a Favorite List, or a System...

    SDS100/SDS200: SDS200 Weird issue

    So here's my take on all this. I noticed you don't have any Quick Keys programmed in, nor do I know how advanced you are on self-programming. It appears to me, you're getting another site or conventional frequencies since the P25 and Data symbols are disappearing when those frequencies come up...

    I can agree with this, but it would take an updated firmware and Sentinel. Creating new service types that end in "secure" or "ENCRY" would be helpful, especially to those utilizing GPS while traveling. All encrypted talk groups (Law Dispatch ENCRY/DMR ENCRY for ex) could be unchecked in...

    I heard some testing on talk groups 1025-1038 this morning by radio ID 1190031/1190032. This would fall under the "CFD block" and the radio ID's would be assigned to Fire District 1 spare pool. In addition to those talk groups, testing by the same radio ID's heard on "previously identified"...

    SDS150: New Uniden Scanner announcement at SEMA 2025

    Here's somehting else to ponder as you're dreaming of the new toy. One of the issues many have experienced involve programming. If you happen to be one of those that utilize zip code or append directly from the database, you might be thinking you're changing filter settings "globally", but the...

    SDS150: New Uniden Scanner announcement at SEMA 2025

    Many of us here have reported little to no issues with analog or any other reception from the first day we received them, so there's that. The SDS 100/200 didn't have filters added via firmware until many of us had them in our hands and were experiencing issues. While the initial video that...

    SDS150: New Uniden Scanner announcement at SEMA 2025

    We know...we know...got it. You tested the SDS 100, and didn't like it, ok, got it. But..let's discuss the SDS 150. No matter how much beta testing is done, we still are going to find issues, so buckle in. :ROFLMAO:

    SDS150: New Uniden Scanner announcement at SEMA 2025

    It would really be nice if we could get this thread back on-topic about the upcoming SDS 150, and the "real world" testing instead of the usual off-topic posts that these threads lean towards. If you feel the need to still complain about the SDS 100/200 or 436/536 scanners, they have plenty of...

    SDS150: New Uniden Scanner announcement at SEMA 2025

    This sums it up very well. Like you, I don't use my "portable" scanner as a "desktop" and instead have many SDS 200's that do the job as I need. I'm one of them who can use the SDS 100 on the road and receive VHF very well, no complaints. I've owned other "portable" scanners over the years, and...
