I have been reading and researching and trying to understand some things, but I would like to just ask some of you all what u think, and so I can get an answer to my questions specifically instead of just reading what someone else did or tried or found out what worked best.
1. So which is best...
Hello all!
So, the emergency services are all encrypted in my country (they all use some form of custom encrypted TETRA, impossible to monitor), last week I was monitoring my scanner and I heard what sounded like traffic police conducting a raid. I've heard it before last year back when I...
Hello again,
I picked up a used FT-2DR predominately for Fusion mode and GPS, but while working with it in APRS-8 I find that for operating mode my choices are AM and NFM, instead of simple FM. When I look for Narrow FM and Wide FM in the instruction booklet I can't find any references...
Would somebody please recommend a Uniden Handheld scanner that has 800MHz and NFM?

Thanks,

For background voice listening with my SDR dongle, I often use the 450-454 MHz band to find business radio comms. Particularly active are courier services in major metro areas, delivering stuff here and there. The interactions between drivers and their dispatchers, shop folks, etc. are...
I've noticed when importing systems from the RR DB in EZ Scan, it appears as though anything P25 or DMR imports as NFM whereas most P25 conventional imports as FM. Has anyone compared FM vs NFM for P25 trunked systems? Which yielded a better result, specifically for systems that are simulcasted...
Ok, I seem to have run into something I can't find. There is a new paging channel for Centre County 460.6125 that has emissions of 11K0F3E, 9K20F1D. I know that 11K0F3E is NFM...but what is 9K20F1D is for???
I see it says Zentron based alpha-numeric paging. Does that mean this frequency is...
