sds100

Has anyone done a nice SDS100 vehicle install? You know, with part numbers of the items used, things like that. It's been running fine so far, no cold solder issues yet. However it is far from a slick install. Scanner in a cup holder and an ugly wire that all keeps getting in the way of my iced...

Anywhere local to get my uniden sds100 repaired? Needs the antenna resoldered

I'm having a weird issue with the SDS-100 and I can't seem to figure it out. I have tried filters, and IFX , changed squelch from 0 to 15 and can't seem to resolve it. The SDS-100 when a transmission comes in 2 out of 5 times, it has this audio sound at the start of the transmission. Its...

I'll be brief. I unboxed it (2021 build but had latest firmware and sub-CPU installed from the factory), updated the DB using Sentinel, and fired it up. I'm out near Clermont and the performance was immediately impressive, though location-based scanning is simply too ambitious for one radio to...

The key is using Winapps. There's already a tutorial on setting it up, so I refer you to it. Once you have everything running, install the Uniden software. The virtual machine window has a menu option Redirect USB Device. Be sure to select your Uniden scanner so that Windows will see it...

I have had an odd thing happening lately on my SDS100 if not used for a couple of days. When powering on, it shows nothing to scan. I have to go into the set scan mey and turn on the systems manually. They had been on when last powered down. It works fine once I do this but just wondering if...

Hi all, I just dropped $ 700 on a Uniden SDS100 and specifically bought it to be able to use Close Call function and also display the CTCSS. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make this come up in the display. I've tried to watch YouTube videos, but to no avail. Can someone...

Does anyone have a good link for the SDS100 (and similar) Serial Driver that works with Proscan? Found a link on this page: https://info.uniden.com/UnidenMan4/BCD325P2 but the web server returns a 404 server error when attempting to retrieve the file. :-/ thank!

I’m looking at getting the Bearcat SDS100. What would be the best antenna would you recommend to pick up the most activity?

Hey all, first post here. I just received my SDS100 and the BC-SGPS module. I plan to keep the GPS in my vehicle for trips. In thinking about where to mount the GPS in my Jeep, I'm curious if there's any requirement to keep the GPS puck mounted right-side-up? Is there any loss of effectiveness...

Okay first I do love both of these scanners - the step up from a 125at I started with is amazing. Having a screen and local frequencies automatically loaded is so cool. BUT on both devices - unless I’m using trunking discovery or conventional discovery I cannot hear a full transmission. I have...

As I am programming my SDS100 for P25 Simulcast cells in my area, I noticed the option to set the site NAC code. Does this do any benefit to the scanner by programming the NAC? Also, would this help ensure the scanner is monitoring the correct cell?

I have a ski resort in my area that I am trying to hear communications from, but I have not had any luck. I am using a SDS100 and the resort is Sun Valley Resort in Ketchum Idaho. They have Motorola handheld units that I can see their ski patrol and lift operators using, so my guess is some...

Availability of the BC-UTGC GPS USB Cable is not good. Bearcat Warehouse is taking backorders but I am unsure how long that will take and am anxious to get started. I would like to make my own cable and have a pretty good idea of how to connect it but am hoping there is some documentation about...

While using the NC Viper or VA Stars systems, I usually like to program all talkgroups so that I hear everything. This used to be called "wildcard" on some of the older Whistler/Radioshack radios. This has worked well for me with the relatively little traffic in my area. However, there are...

On the SDS100, you have Replay and Record options. When using the 240 Second replay, for example, why cant you save it like the recordings? They are clearly stored in memory for the replay, so wouldn't it make sense to be able to export it to SD card without using the recording option?

Hi, I am considering buying an SDS100 but have these two questions: 1. Why does the Uniden website itself not list the scanner as one of its active products (I am looking here). That seems a bit odd. Do they sell but no longer manufacture it, or are they winding it down? 2. I love...

My SDS100 has Two Folders after I reset my scanner, and sentinel only puts data in the BCDx36HP folder, not the SDS100 folder... Is this normal?

I just very recently purchased an SDS100. Overall I'm enjoying being able to hear digital broadcasts that I couldn't receive on my BC125AT. However it seems that the SDS100 is not doing so well with analog channels compared to the BC125AT. Side-by-side the BC125AT will be picking up a...

Hi Group, I am seeing frequent private calls on a (Harris?) P25 system by way of DSD but the SDS100 seems to totally ignore these. As recommended previously in the forum, I have added the wildcard talkgroup "i0" to the scan list, and also made sure it is not in avoided state and that the...
