    SDS100/SDS200: Sds100 dmr

    Hello I’ve been thinking of doing the dmr Upgrade on my sds100. Lately I’ve been locking onto channels when scanning and I hear just white noise. Is there a way to identify if that is Dmr. My reasoning for the upgrade would be to get access to those but if not dmr I still won’t be able to listen.

    SDS100/SDS200: Scanning order seems to jump around

    I have a favorites list of analog stuff to scan. Watching the screen, the scanner seems to jump back and forth a lot instead of progressing through the scan list progressively. I did a test where in the favorite list I only had two systems, each department had a couple of departments, each...

    Hi all... a beginner here craving knowledge and enlightenment. But I'll settle for some assistance. When I put a set of headphones on my ears (connected to my SDS100), I'm hearing what I've seen called "thrumming" or "motorboating" sound (to me, "thrumming" seems more accurate) on certain...

    SDS100/SDS200: Newbie Quick Key Question

    Hello all... Just got my SDS100, and it's pretty slick. Of course, there's a learning curve, so I'm here with probably a dumb question about quick keys & scanning. I have three favorite lists each with its own FLQK. Two of the lists are for local police departments with conventional systems...

    SDS100/SDS200: Audio Transmission Cut off

    Hello, I just got my SDS100 scanner and I'm having issues with my transmission being cut off in the beginning.
