For past few months the scanner sometimes shows no signal bars while on my SDS200 I hear activity. I try to turn it off on and reconnect the antenna and sometimes it works but sometimes I still hear nothing then I suddenly start hearing activity. One day I removed the antenna and something came...
Hi. I need a program or plugin for SDR that allows receiving only SDS files from TETRA using RTL-SDR and saving them in folders. Does anyone have something like that?
I have an old RadioShack 20-315 handheld looking to upgrade. So many options since I last looked my head is spinning! I think I'd like Whistler because it's more like the RadioShacks I'm used to (because they bought them?) but I hear they struggle with simulcast, but does anyone happen to know...
What's your favorite feature of the SDS100/SDS200 Scanner?
You have to pick only ONE thing, that you like about the SDS100/SDS200 Scanner.
What feature do you like best?
I will start this:
The customized display!
I searched but couldn't find an explanation of the signal strength bar. When I'm scanning a P25 county, I'll notice that the signal strenth meter (top right of the screen) will flash off/on even without traffic. I only have one frequency site in the Kerr System group that is active (and that's...
I'm no novice to scanning, going from crystal, to early (BC100) programmable, to Uniden's digital models. One thing I had not messed with previously is the GPS feature on some of the newer scanners.
I bought the 4800 baud GPS puck (fewer wires to mess with) for my SDS100 and it works really...
Hello All,
I decided to expand my SDS models to add DMR and NXDN and bought the upgrades.
So in Sentinel.
I added a Favorites List:
DMR (assigned Quick Key 2)
under that Department (are my calling this correct?):
Hard Rock Casino (assigned Quick Key 0)
under that Departments:
Casino (Quick Key...
There's an awesome topic on color schemes.
So I figured I would create one for boot opening screens.
To Change Opening Graphic Boot Screen For The SDSX00 Scanners
Can be a any color image but changed to...
* SDS100 the Image must be 240 x 320 Must be a 24 bit bitmap
* SDS200 the Image must...
Hello All,
So I have 2 - P25 Systems in my area. Problem I am having is that I cannot toggle on and off one of the systems. (Through Quick Key Use on scanner) - can you help?
In Sentinel:
System 1 Tulsa_OkWin_P25 - Monitor On Download On Quick Key 0
System 2 BA_Comm_Reg - Monitor Off Download...
I wasn't able to find a definitive answer. So I am going to ask. If there's any links to this, please post below.
I have a question about inputting Unit ID's into the SDS200.
I know most of you are going to automatically send the easy to read manual, lol
That is not the question, lol...
I was looking at the screen display color options post, and then this idea popped in my head.
On the SDS200, you can also customize what objects can be shown on the display
(Unit ID, Site ID, TGID, WACN, etc...)
Question: Which objects are the most useful to have on the display, and why do you...
Using Close Call, How Do I lockout 162.0-163.0 range?
It is picking up the WX station band, and I have no idea how to avoid them during a close call search, without locking out the whole band.
There any way I can just skip that freq range, while doing a close call search?
I apologize if this has already been mentioned and I somehow missed it. I have a feature request that may (or may not) be able to be added to a future SDS firmware update. I have noticed when using the Analyze feature (SDS100), that the screen timeout will kick-in (if programmed), and the...
Hi,
I tried searching the forums, and didn't find what I was searching for. I apologize if it is already posted. If so, please post the links!
I just upgraded my SDS200 with the DMR upgrade.
I programmed a freq. in that I know is DMR, but it is not decoding it.
What am I missing?
There a...
I just recently purchased a Uniden SDS100. I have added custom scan lists on P25 and analog channels. My problem is there is 50+ sites for the local statewide P25 system. I currently have a local scan list with just the tower thats in my county but whenever I am traveling I have to re-enable the...
Has anyone had any success using either the Uniden 996P2 or 325P2 on this system? I have a lot of trouble with decoding due to the simulcast and am wondering if anyone has found settings that work well before I spend big bucks on an SDS scanner.
Thanks in advance!
I am having a problem with the 200 where it will not stay locked on the control channel of a trunked system (OKWIN). I have the system locked on 1 site and there is only 1 control channel listed in the frequency table of the site. The RSSI indicator show receiving for about .5 sec and then...
Hello All,
Needless to say I was very excited about getting this new scanner, however it didn't take long to find major problems with it.
I first noticed after setting the time/date that after powering it off/on it would reset to Jan. 1 0:00 every time.
Then I found that when pressing the...
I'm looking for what the next step is after you've ran LCN Finder for a while and have found a few (in my case 4 out of 14)? I tried hitting the E button, tried hitting the menu button on the side and tried hitting "to scan" and then I lost apparently everything. So, what exactly is the...
