digital

Does anyone know the name of the software that is specifically for the vertex standard vxd-7200 DMR radio. I searched all over the net but I've only found the name for the P25 version of this radio. It usually starts with a "CE" followed by a number. Thanks for the help!

I want to buy a police scanner as a Christmas present but I don't really know which one is the right one. I live in Eastern Ohio and I was informed that the police frequencies here are transferring over to digital. My budget is 150, 200 max. Is there any scanner that may fit this criteria?

I currently see lots of experimentation and discussion about digital voice modes,P25, Mototrbo, NXDN, D-star, etc,etc,etc. I think that a lot of experimenting going on is a good thing. All this experimentation will uncover all the various strengths and weaknesses of the various systems...

I'm not sure if it's an issue with the scanner or the system that it's not completed but here's the situation. When the console transmits on a Talkgroup the scanner does not decode the transmission unless there is a radio (mobile/portable) selected on that channel somewhere on the system. Ex...

I'm not sure if anyone else is having this problem, as I've asked elsewhere in the community, and it's been fairly quiet. Anyhow, I am using Sorcerer-setup-1.0.0.exe, and it opens up, showing up in the taskbar, and their is a process running for it, but alas there's not visible window showing...

My wife and I are heading out to the store and we're strongly considering purchasing a new Uniden BCD396XT with hopes of picking up the Conneaut Police Department's traffic after recently upgrading to the MARCS digital system. Can anybody confirm that we'll be able to pick them up? Does anyone...

Hi All, I am helping setup a radio infrastructure and I need some opinions as to the best way to get this done. Here is what the situation is and sorry in advanced if I ramble on a bit. This will be a 4 site system in the middle of nowhere, in the forest, so we want to go with a trunked setup...

Simply noticed this afternoon that Cullman County Fire Dispatch@158.745 had been testing out their new P25 radio system. Unsure if all the volunteer departments have new equipment yet or not, dispatch was toning out different departments last week for "meetings" to get new radios out. Didn't...

Some background. Our town is getting a new Motorola Radio Communication System (simulcast). To achieve the 95% Analog coverage goal, 2 new towers are planned in less than ideal locations. We could achive the 95% digital coverage goal with a different tower configuration that has less impact...

I'm starting a thread over the largest trunked systems in the country. I want everyone's input. I believe I may have found the largest but I may be wrong. I found the Louisiana LWIN system has over 67,000 users that's my guess. Anyone with input? ADMINS IF YOU FEEL THIS IS NOT THE...

I am preparing to install a Nexedge repeater at an existing site. I'm looking for an audio sample of an existing site that I can use for training presentation. Can someone upload a clip or point me to a RR audio feed that uses Nexedge. I know Kenwood and Icom have examples on their sites, but...

Does anyone have any info on the status of the Little Rock area upgrade to digital? How much longer maybe?

Hello, I am posting this because I am purchasing a RadioShack Pro-97 1000 Channel scanner and I just wanted to know if anyone has it and what their opinion is about it, I also want to know if anyone has any knowledge of it. This is my first scanner, I am new to the scanning world, and I am only...

Hello, I am just wondering if anyone from here happens to know what happened with the Perth Amboy Police live feed. It was up a few weeks ago then it disappeared. Secondly, not sure if anyone knows if this is true or not but I went to RadioShack to buy a scanner and I was told that I was not...

I was playing with service search on my 396t the other night and came across p25 on 154.800. A quick stroll through the database shows this frequency in use for Genoa PD, but does not show P25 in use. The traffic I picked up gave locations in and around Genoa so I'm pretty sure it's them...

I just got a Uniden BCD396XT digital scanner and have no idea how digital trunked systems work. I'm trying to program STL city P25 public safety (Fire, Police, EMS) and don't know what a talkgroup vs a site vs system frequencies are. Could someone please help? Thanks!!!

I've been listening to Crabtree Valley Mall (Raleigh) for years now but now on their frequency (464.050) but now I hear a digital sound on this channel much like if one were listening to digital viper TG on an analog scanner. Can anyone confirm this? And if so would a Motorola XTS P25 portable...

As reported in today's local paper a vote will take place at the council meeting 11/13 to approve a contract with Motorola. The contract needs to be signed by 11/21 for a price lock. FEMA money and a local match will be used to pay for the conversion. The actual switch is not anticipated before...

I've had this scanner for a while now without any problems. I reset it today because half my channels were locked out and had to scroll through all of them one by one to get to my desired channel so I reset it to start over. Now every time I try to enter a frequency from nyc out gives me an...
