scanner

I have been wondering about how the zip code search works on the sds100 and i done some searching around the web but can't get a definite answer so i'll ask here. When i put in the zip code i read it loads everything within a 10 mile radius is that true? does it only load what is within 10...

I have the SDS100 and i have searched online and found few things about the sds100 and DMR scanning being slow for some reason i am having this issue but i can't figure out what could be wrong. my scanner will scan fine and when it comes upon a DMR single freqs it will hang there for a long time...

Ok i have looked at tons of antennas and i am confused on a few different things for example a dual band and a tri band antenna if the tri band lets you cover more why would people even bother with a dual band is it because that if a antenna is programmed for a specific freqs it will pick up...

Can someone with more knowledge than me maybe help me with this, this is a problem that i have noticed for awhile now and i can't figure out what is going on i have tried searching it on google and i'm stumped I have all these frequencies popping up every where and they pop up really fast and...

Hey everybody i got some questions i want to ask you so to understand certain things a bit better. I hear that provoice is not really used anymore and getting the upgrade would be pointless, what is provoice exactly? the way i understand it is it's like FM or analog, What is the label for...

Standard CCR708A / AX-700 Opinions What are your current thoughts of the Standard CCR708A VHF UHF Receiver

I have a friend who looking for an entry level scanner which doesn’t break the bank. My assumptions are it must be digital and hand held. The scanner can’t be as costly as my Uniden BCD-436HP. Tons of bells and whistle are not needed. My friend’s main goal is to monitor local emergency...

I finally got my sds100 and I'm having trouble I'm coming from sdr dongles and using sdrtrunk and dsdplus. So I put my zip code In and it's just showing way to much , since I've been using sdrtrunk and dsdplus i pretty much know what frequencies i can listen to and what ones I can't, so how do...

My first question and most important one is With the sds100 how does it work with P25 control channels and scanning, so lets say i have 10 freqs i want to listen to and three of those freqs are P25 trunking control channels and the rest of the channels are conventional such as a conventional...

Hi everyone, i am just wondering if their is any tips and stuff for sdrtrunk. like i have recording enabled and everything is being saved to the recordings folder but is their a way to import them into anything, like universal scanner audio player for dsdplus. something that will organize them...

So i have been struggling to figure the answer out to this question for a while now. I bought the RTL-SDR kit and i don't know how to configure the antenna, videos on youtube have conflicting answers i see one person say use it one way and then another person in a different video says to use it...

Hello all you radio junkies! Lol Ive had a fair share of scanners in the past from when i was in my teens till now. I love to listen to whats going on around me. Then awhile back everything went encrypted, but i just recently discovered my area has fire rescue back on the scanner radio app so...

Can anyone help me out here i have been trying to get dsdplus up and running on linux mint i got it setup with my RSPdx to where it's detecting the audio from gqrx and i have it set on a P25 control channel i know their is traffic on it because my other radio is working but the dsdplus event log...

So i just bought the RSPdx and i'm a newbie when it comes to really understanding everything but what would i use the three antenna inputs for? i basically just listen to the local police and ems type stuff between 150 to 450mhz will either antenna input work or do i have to use a certain input...

Hi i am having some problems with what i should buy and not buy. right now i have three RTL-SDR v4's and i'm using one to listen to a p25 control channel on OP25 and the other two are being used with dsdplus fastlane i have two instances of fastlane open and each one scanning a set number of...

What would be the CHEAPEST scanner besides a rtl-sdr dongle could get by with to listen to everything in my area? Thanks a lot. My Area My Area

Hey guys i'm using dsdplus fastlane and i set my scanlist up but when i put p25 CC in it i notice my scanning will get interrupted by getting stuck on the p25 channel it only does this with a p25 freq if i leave out the p25 it scans just fine. is this how it's suppose to work or is their a fix i...

Hi So, I been listening to the cottonwood heights Police Dept, And I notice they have dispatch, and car to car, but not a tactical channel, I tried listening on other talk groups, but I don't hear anything when they talk. If anyone could help me I would be happy. Thanks! I just wanna be informed...

Does anyone know what causes this. notice the bottom of the waterfall, That is normal it's showing the signal and everything is good and then about every minute or so i will see the top part of the waterfall do this. i have played around with the gain and everything else but nothing fixes it...

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...
