I bought my cable from this guy. I read thru all his positive feedbacks, and it works beautifully. Had to do nothing to get it up & running. I emailed RT AND BuTel. Both said they have no cable or software that will work with this radio. Bluemax49ers.com. Good prices, he has the software link...

Thanks guys ! I ordered 1 a few days ago. I'm already using the 810s with the radio. Just looking for something to help a little with VHF. I'm located pretty close to the closest simulcast tower, and actually have pretty good luck throughout most of the county with just a stubby 800 antenna, so...

Thanks !! It's really hard to tell by the pics I've seen if the connector is long enough to work. So what's your opinion of it ?

A quick question about the 842s, does it fit on the SDS100 as is, or does it require an sma female to male connector, or trimming off some of the rubber to expose more of the connector ? I've checked several websites that carry them. I found 1 that said it will only work on the 436hp, a few that...

I have not tried it in the car, but I have used it many times transmitting to a few different BT speakers. I have never had to re-pair it. It has always automatically re-connected to the last device used.

Yes, or you can let it connect with your headphones then plug it into the scanner. The larger button is for power/pairing. The smaller button is the switch between transmitter (blue light) or receiver (red light).

I found this on Amazon. It's BT 5.0 & can be used as a receiver or transmitter. It fits perfectly into the headphone jack on the SDS100, as well as many other scanners with top mounted headphone jacks. The size was a big selling point for me. It tucks in nicely between the rotary knob & the...

Spent 2 weeks in London in June. Heard them fine on 158.760 NAC 333, although there was not as much traffic as I thought. I am only down that way 6 or 7 times a year, so I'm not sure how busy they are over long periods.

My SDS100 had the jumpy scroll knob problem after about 6 months, that got progressively worse until it would scroll without me even touching it. I still had 3 months on my warranty so I warily sent it in on June 1st. UPS said it was accepted by Uniden on June 3rd. After about a week I tried...

Have there been a lot of reports of the malfunctioning scroll knobs ? Mine has been doing the same thing. At times it will scroll up or down the menus or volume by itself. The knob on my 436 is still MUCH more solid than on the SDS100. If this is a major problem, any chance they will repair for...

Wow, thanks iMONITOR ! I really need to pay closer attention. :) The database still lists Macomb Co as a 9 site system, but there are 14 on the maps. I never noticed the 5 additional sites. I did see the graphic you shared on the state map from another thread, but didn't look at it very closely...

You're right, my bad. I was thinking of Macomb Co.

I saw that the database now shows the system as a 10 site instead of 9, and the range radius is much further north. So what exactly does that mean as far as reception ? It is still very random up here from day to day. I assume the new site is why I have reception here at all, and the database...

Thanks !!

Can anyone that has 1 of these radios help me with any of these 4 questions ? Thanks.

I am inclined to think there is something being done too. I have been using the analyze feature to watch the site signal, leaving it in a fixed position with the Remtronix antenna. It is VERY intermittent. It will be full scale with very high quality one minute, then back to 0 the next. Same...

Well, I did briefly consider the tropo ducting theory for a minute, but I wasn't sure if it happened that high in frequency. I've only heard it firsthand with VHF over the years. I'm wondering now if that might be part of it ? Over the last several hours I have heard nothing. Signal is...

First of all, I have lived in the Chesterfield/New Baltimore area for over 20 yrs. I am close to the water, in an area notoriously bad for reception of some signals. Reception dramatically improves within 2 or 3 miles from my house. Since I got my SDS100 last year, I have only really been able...

Thanks to several of you for help with the manufacturer software issues. I still have a few questions that I can't find answers to. The manual doesn't really go into specifics & the software only shows settings, not descriptions. - What is the volume inhibit tx for ? I thought I knew its...

Thanks for the link. Worked perfectly. There are a couple of things that have me confused & the manual didn't really didn't cover them. I've done online searches & haven't found any definitive answers. - What is the volume inhibit tx for ? I thought I knew its function but I didn't see any...
