I bought an AOR AR-DV1 a couple of weeks ago. Today, I noticed that I can't see NXDN as a mode choice. I have tried a full factory reset, but it still doesn't show up. Could there be something I am missing to make it display. The firmware is 2205AN.

Is D-CR how they refer to NXDN?

Interesting. Thank you for the reply. Now I have to find out what that stands for.
Two varieties of NXDN - narrow (called 9600 baud) and very narrow (4800 baud). That radio only does 4800 decoding. That type is used for NXDN trunking and conventional frequencies, but I have some local agencies using 9600-baud in conventional mode. Probably a Wikipedia read would give more details, but they both sound the same in a commercial radio (to me).
