Finally ID'd this. Not Amazon, but it's Fed Ex Ground near airport in Charlotte.
Actually I checked for the license on it, I don't believe it's FedEx (unless they're running unlicensed) WRKA973 - 650 South Tryon Development with an emissions of 7K60FXE (MOTOTRBO)

WPXD532 464.100mhz FEDEX GROUND as well as 3 other businesses in Mecklenburg County. I'm definitely hearing FEDEX on that frequency.

I'm considering buying the DMR license for one of my SDS scanners. I know next to nothing about DMR, and I'm curious how it works functionally. If I have a DMR license, are DMR transmissions heard alongside the P25 transmissions I hear now, or do I have to boot the scanner into some sort of 'DMR Mode' where only DMR transmissions are heard? That's never been clear to me in all the DMR-related forum threads.
Your help is appreciated!

DMR reception will be like another authorized mode in your scanner. For a better understanding you might want to ask in the Uniden forum.

On the SDS units, the scanner will decode every mode you've unlocked with valid purchases automatically (as long as the traffic is unencrypted). There is no requirement to do anything special. Comes in great when you are band-searching in an area you've never been before (especially for business frequencies). I have DMR & NXDN unlocked on my 100 & it stops & ID's what it's hearing all on it's own.

Using OpenEar to search for NXDN and DMR. I found school buses on 453.000. Are any others known in and around Moore County? I know some golf courses use DMR, but have not heard any yet.

Check out the site below, the results may or may not be accurate as they are based simply on FCC data and not listener verification, some places license multiple modes but do not use all of them.
