Are upgrades needed for SDS 200 in Halifax?

[Rotorhead124]

I live on Giezer's Hill. I just got an SDS200. Which upgrades are likely to be useful? DMR? NXDN? ProVoice?

DMR used by some municipal services; some NXDN used by VFDs around Lunenburg (fireground ops) and STC buses in HRM
No Provoice. In fact I believe our only EDACS system went silent about 10 years ago.
Also Motobro is used at Hfx Airport and possibly Marine Atlantic in North Sydney
DMR and NXDN are still on my "works in progress" list.

Lots on DMR and NXDN in the Halifax area.

PW=password? If so, password for what?

Password for a uniden account to register the unit, get future firmware, and buy the upgrades.

My password was sent within 24 hrs. There have been some reports of problems with that site lately.

Once your scanner is registered there, you purchase the paid upgrades by following the prompts, and then the digital keys to input into your scanner to activate the upgrades, and a receipt, are provided immediately upon payment being accepted - and they are also emailed to you.

Firmware updates (no password needed for that) for the SD card type scanners are updated through the Sentinel software , not at my.uniden.com
