sds200

When I move a ProScan UID to the FL UID database, I get text in the Unit UID (number) field if a matching UID entry exists. I've tried all three variations in the move/copy tool. Is there a way to move/copy to replace the existing UID or create an additional entry with the UID number and text...

Main Trading Co. in Paris, Texas is having a sale on most of their merchandise this weekend. The Uniden SDS200 is $594.99 (have to put one in your cart to see this price) with free shipping and no sales tax to purchasers outside Texas. I have previously purchased a new SDS100 from them on a...

I found that pressing the Power knob multiple times cycles through display L/M/H/Off. But when off, the display keeps coming on periodically, presumably on a channel hit. Is there a way to run audio on w/o any display via a quick-key sort of method? Bret/N4SRN

SDS200 ProScan 19.4.0 I am monitoring a Trunked Radio System that has LOTS of Talk Groups and User I.D.'s. Is there an easy way to scan for Talk Groups that would not be listed in the Database or on the Radio Reference Page?

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...

By default, Sentinel programs all of the frequencies for a site, control and voice. Is there any benefit to removing the voice channels so the radio doesn't have to scan through them for potential control data? Obviously the control channels are all that's needed, but do the voice channels...

In my last shack, I had everything in one Rack (Box) an 8U Black Woodgrain Rack (24"hx21w"x16"deep) which took up the whole left side of my corner desk, reducing my workspace. Great for the radios/scanners not good for desk space. In this new change, I found smaller narrow standard rack boxes...

Hi ya'll - I just purchased my first scanner the SDS200 and have it up and scanning but I noticed that the display goes blank after a little while. It comes back on after I hit a key so I don't think it's a display problem. Is there a way to keep the display from turning off? Since I'm new to...

Just curious, I got one on a whim a bit ago. I don't have nearly the amount of time to spend on the various communications hobbies anymore, so my research is pretty surface level. I was wondering if there are owners with "must have" things for it that might come across this, or some quick tips...

My SDS200 appears to have a very faint, static sound coming from the internal speaker. It is not loud by any means, and can only be heard if I put my head close to the unit. If I plug in an external speaker, the sound ceases from the internal speaker, and continues on the external speaker. Could...

I'm searching for a list of Unit ID's for the CNYICC, particularly Onondaga County Fire/EMS/LEO. I'm wondering if anyone maybe already has this information entered into their scanner, or maybe in an excel spreadsheet for easy entry. I have no problem doing this myself, but I figure why reinvent...

Good evening Ive looked over some posts about the alert light, my question how exactly do I get it activated? I tried through the main TGID list on Sentinel, and even added the ones I was trying to activate to a favorite list but still a no go. Its been a few months since Ive updated the...

I am attempting or would like to set my scanner up to press one button to monitor either one list or the other. My situation is as follows I have a larger county wide list and a more local to my community list. I'd like to with one press of the key turn the list on or off. I have read the manual...

My computer doesn’t recognize either USB port on my SDS200. To update firmware and database I have to remove microSD card. I have searched the internet and can’t find anything about this issue. Any ideas on how to get the SDS200 to be recognized? I other Uniden scanners that a required no...

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...

I received mine with no directions on the ccnnection to the scanner and what settings do I do on the sds200? any help would be appreciated. stprovost

I was thinking about buying either buying the 200, or two bcd996p2's. Has anyone in Morris County experienced monitoring Morris County's P25 system, NJICS, & Parsippany with the 996p2 vs the 200? Can the 996p2 handle the simulcast like the 200 can? I heard it is hit or miss with the 996p2...

Has anyone come up with a better GPS solution for permanent mobile mount in an auto for the SDS200? The current GPS kit is ridiculous you need to have the USB cable with the power inserter and then plug in the cigarette power adapter to power the GPS. Then you have the cable to the GPS itself...

I have been using the SDS200 front USB post recently. I saw it was meant for the gps, and future developments. So, one day I plugged in my buddies trx-1 handheld scanner into it. To see what would happen. Long and behold, it ran and charged the batteries of my buddies trx-1. We kept it...

I think at this point I'm right where I want to be with my shack. It is primarily monitoring with only a little bit of DMR. Here is the lineup. Top Right and Top Left - BCD996P2's monitoring different local digital P25 Phase II systems that are NOT Simulcast. Center Left - SDS200 monitoring...
