    Quick thoughts on my new TRX-1

    First of all not really "new" got it refurbished and also got a Vets discount but looks and acts new. I listen to mostly non Trunking stations for now and was very disappointed in the reception until I put the ATT to G or off. Made a HUGE difference. I haven't used it for Trunking yet so I can't...

    Two quick questions on programing TRX-1

    My TRX-1 hasn't arrived yet (hopefully will arrive today) but getting ready to use ez-scan to set up my scan lists. I was torn as to put these questions in the software forum or here but my first question I think pertains more to the TRX-1 then software. First I chose to do a wildcard on import...

    Whistler TRX-1 VHF antenna

    I finally pulled the plug and bought the TRX-1 after being out of scanning for years. I relocated to Ventura County, Ca and I think most freqs are VHF and looking for recommendations on an antenna to replace the stock one that comes with the unit. Also open to suggestions for a wide range...

    Warming Up?

    For the most part, my Whistler TRX-1 picks up a particular 900 MHz trunking system just fine. Nevertheless, I've noticed when I scan Low Band VHF, Hi Band VHF, and 470-500 MHz UHF for extended periods of time without scanning said 900 MHz system, the scanner is slow to start receiving the 900...

    How do you program your TRX-1, TRX-2 scanners?

    I highly customize the programming of my scanners. I find EZ Scan to be anything but easy to use. I wonder what everyone else is doing.

    TRX-1: Questions about deleting certain simulcast in large system

    Thinking of getting the trx - 1. I'm looking at the EZ scan software and I can't seem to find how you can eliminate certain simulcast when wanting to scan only a certain group within a scan list. For example the RWC is Valley Wide radio system that has many simulcasts in them each simulcast has...

    Questions

    I have two questions about the TRX-1 and EZScan that I hope someone can answer; 1. What is the relationship (if any) between the display scroll/scan speed and the actual scan speed of the TRX-1? 2. If I perform a Channel Update, are the outmoded talkgroup names or frequencies changed to...

    Whistler CDAT - invisible talkgroups?

    While programming my TRX-1 with the latest official CDAT software, I ran across something weird with what appears to be invisible talkgroup programming. Example: I try to program in a talkgroup of 3107 into a trunked DMR system. The software happily accepts it, but does not appear in the...

    TRX-1, Wildcard Help & Logging Radio IDs

    What's the purpose of a Wildcard, and how do I use it effectively? The manual is kind of vague about it. In the EZ-Scan software there is a section under each trunked system labelled Radio IDs. What's the purpose for this and how do I log IDs into the system? Thanks for the help!

    Uniden BC436HP or Whistler TRX-1

    Hello, Scanners! I want to ask the scanning community for input on which scanner I should by for my needs. I had a Whistler TRX-1 for while in the past but sold it to fund other hobbies so I am quite familiar with the user interface. While looking around, I stumbled upon the Uniden BC436HP. So...

    TRX-1: Another TRX-1 programing question

    I just got a TRX-1 about a week and a half ago and cant figure out how to program it the way I would like. Is there a way to program each scanlist as a bank like in the older scanners? (RS Pro 106). I would like to have one scanlist as a roaming style and have one scanlist separate for each...

    TRX-1 App Error Message

    While attempting to install the latest CPU update to my TRX-1, the app states it cannot find any CPU firmware or DSP firmware for that matter. Does that with two different USB cables connecting to the computer. Yet the scanner still functions properly. Is there a reset or workaround?

    Ottawa EDACS Activity

    I added the Ottawa EDACS system to my TRX-1 and I see no activity (24-25 June). Lots of activity on P25. Any ideas? The settings were downloaded using the EZ Scan software. If someone is using a TRX-1 to monitor Ottawa EDACS, could you please share your settings? .. Thanks

    Looking for a longer USB cord

    I'd like to get a longer USB cord for my TRX-1 scanner. Is there anything special I should be looking for? I know the manual says using an incompatible USB cord may damage the scanner. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I'm a newbie.... Thanks!!
