I am not seeing any other adjacent ICIS TRS Sites with any South Bay Fire talkgroups roaming on them. I believe all South Bay FIRE cities are on the South Bay site only unless they roam on the Mutual Aid talkgroups.

Does anyone know where to buy the Unication G5 at the best price without tax maybe? Does it come with bluetooth? Recommendations please

Nope, I am not returning my SDS-200 unless it comes used or has a defect. I know exactly what I want and I know this radio will have the HUM noise. So I will open up the radio and get the X Key tool out and do the surgery on the radio again like my other one and be done with the HUM noise. I...

EBAY is a junk website anymore anyways. I hold they die a slow death. They charge too much to sell items like 12 percent and then another 3 percent to paypal for the transaction. What a joke. Then on top now charging tax. This is going to kill them

Yup. No more buying on EBAY. This is going to hurt the company really bad. This is always why I bought from good sellers on Ebay for no tax and free shipping. Going to use smaller companies now off of EBAY like ZipScanners.

So I went to go and purchase another SDS-200 tonight on Flee-Bay and now they are charging state tax now. Wow. It was going to be another 55 bucks for tax. Not sure if this has been talked about in other threads but just saw it. So I went to Zipscanners and bought one for FREE shipping and...

Also, I think Whittiers analog repeater either got fixed or upgraded because their signal is so strong now which I was never able to hear at my house.

Yeah I guess saving 20 bucks is not worth it. I would rather buy new anyways from EBAY and pay no tax and free shipping

Yup. Doesn't matter. There are only certain certified batteries that will work on an APX 8000 radio. I had to return a stubby battery and ended up buying the extended battery.

I had the same problem in the past and the battery is just not going to work. Return it and make sure read on Motorola's website about which battery is certified. Doesn't matter if you turned off switched or check marks in CPS.

I tend to think that "The Mountain Simulcast" system carries the most FIRE traffic except for 3-CMD 9 and 3-TAC 9. If you are living within the SBDCO area and you have access to that system I would make sure its programmed.

All that I have heard in the clear is CON-FIRE talkgroups and Training talkgroup 545 yesterday. Oscar Animal Control is in the clear and the rest of the system is pretty much encrypted. Also, Ontario Fire is in the clear too.

If you are already a feed provider does this mean that the services is FREE to those members that provide a feed?

Yes, he is very centrally located in a good area. This is why I advised him to try and get an outside antenna maybe like a discone to get it high up at or 30 ft if possible. Might be-able to get Ventura County too and get the majority of low band CHP too.

Also, keep in mind that when you buy this radio it will do wonders for you. I would put up a big antenna on your roof if you can. Also, there is a slight defect with some HUM noise that can be noticed that comes out of the speaker. There was a guy that figured out the HUM fix and its works...

They are probably working out their encryption issues and going back to their main dispatch talkgroups

Well since you live in the Burbank/Glendale area you will have a lot to listen too. You can either go with a BCD996P2 Uniden radio which you can almost get for about 340.00 bucks now on Ebay which works really well for your needs. Really no Phase II so this radio would work great. But if you...

Well you have to give Upman credit as he is battling cancer and is the driving force of the scanner division for Uniden. All we can do is hope for the best for him and get some more updates and firmware soon down the road. Just have to be really patient and be good people during this battle...

Yes encryption is on the rise at alarming rates but depending on where you live and what you want to listen to I would buy the Uniden SDS-200. Stay away from Whistler and the other models. This new scanner radio has very sensitive filters built into the radio so you can pickup far distance...
