    BC346XT: Uniden vs Whistler

    Well, I believe I've made the same mistake twice !!! I purchased a 346XTC a couple of years ago, one reason was the remote control head which I unceremoniously found was discontinued AFTER I bought the scanner, the second is 2 years worth of confussion and the inability to program this unit the...

    TRX-2 and Clock

    Hello all... Just got my new TRX-2 today, for the most part I understand how to program it using the PC cable. 1 thing I can't figure out is the clock, when you power it down I got the clock to display, but it shows 24-hour time, is there a way to change it to 12-hour time? Thanks! Love this...

    Radio ID Needs to be in a scanlist to display???

    Just noticed that I had an RID in another Scanlist, so it didn't display since I had that list turned off. My question and/or wish is RIDs to display no matter what Scanlist you are operating in for that TRS. Another thing while I'm asking for wishes. Why do you need a Delay for a UID/RID when...

    Scanner suggestions Northumberland County

    Good day all, I am new to the RR forums. I was pretty involved in the scanning hobby in years past but unfortunately life happened and I had to step away from it for several years. That said I recently decided to dig out and dust off my old Uniden and start getting back into the hobby I used...

    WS1095: Replacement Remote Head?

    Does anyone know how I would be able to purchase a replacement remote head for the WS1095? I'm looking for the simplified remote head that comes stock with the WS1095 (pictured below), not the extended one that comes with the WS1098 and TRX-2. I've contacted Whistler, Scanner Master, Universal...

    TRX-2: Whistler TRX-2 - Unboxing Photos

    Hi, I took unboxing photos of Whistler TRX-2 in hi-res so you could see what is included, the shape and possible mounting options. Concern about the quality: The buttons are sheathed in thin black rubber material with what appears to be possibly rubberized silkscreen. Unknown how long the...

    Need advice on new buying new scanner

    Hope I can get some good input as I'm thinking of upgrading my scanner. Little background. Years ago I bought a Uniden 396xt. Make a long story short it was a huge disappointment. I was never able to get the reception I desired on certain trunking systems. Years ago I posted many posts here on...

    what systems would you like to recieve ?

    I would like members to post what they would need a scanner to receive in there area. In todays market it seems the top scanner companies have now produced the phase 2 p25. I want to know what those companies need to be working on. In my area the DMR systems are starting to pop up in the law...

    Digital scanners on the market. Please read !!!

    I am trying to see what the crowd likes or dislikes about the current digital scanners. I am a fan of a Motorola style digital scanner. I have mentioned in another thread title " We're almost there , almost " that the need for a new improved Motorola ( professional portable ) style scanner is...

    We're almost there, almost. A durable, digital scanner is needed.

    I initiated a Thread in the past regarding the necessity for a more durable scanner. I received numerous replies in the positive, but was shocked to receive a few negative, as if what I was saying needed to be kept a secret. I still believe it’s time for a company to look into producing a...

    Trying to decide: 325P2 or 436HP ???

    I have a 996P2 which I really like and it is superior to my old 996XT for sure. I program my scanners w1ith software like ARC XT Pro, FreeScan and Proscan. I have a handheld Whistler 1050 which does okay but the limit of 20 Scan Lists is a big pain. So I want to bet a handheld scanner...

    New Whistler Swivel Belt Clip fits PRO-668

    I ordered mine on Sunday and it arrived this afternoon. It replaces the stock 668 belt clip without issue. It projects quite a bit further than the stock clip, swivels easily, and has a distinct 'hook' on the bottom, to more securely grab onto a belt (the stock one slips off far too easily)...

    UPDATE

    Well you guys can hold onto your $$$ a while longer, the email I received today says that Whistler WS1095 is projecting the ship date to LATE MAY, it seems they can't get their dates right either.
