Hello all,
I have read many comments comparing these two radios - I hope you do not mind my asking yet another question about this.
I am very well aware of (some) of the differences between the two radios: screen (and details provided on screen); SD card (and recording to it) vs. large (but limited) memory; somewhat different operation (enter zip code and scanner auto populates vs. program systems you need) etc. I am also aware that I will probably need the radioreference subscription for the 325 while I do not need it for the 436. But this is not what I am asking.
I have only one question: from a receiving hardware perspective (where I mean reception, sensitivity, ability to decode certain modes etc.) - is there any significant difference between the two, and if yes, what is it?
I would prefer the cheaper model - but only if I will not miss out on anything (I am in the Toronto area, Canada) from a hardware (reception) perspective. So is there anything the 325P2 cannot receive but the 436HP can?
Thank you for your feedback!
PS: I am aware of the better SD100 - but that is outside of my budget.
