Thanks for this information. What about the Uniden BCD996P2? I’ve been reading and people say it would work but not fully sure with the simlacast.

It's harder to program than an SDS100 / 200. Spend a little more, do it right the first time, and you will be thanking yourself you did it that way.

Speaking from experience, the BCD996P2 does not handle simulcast well. The only scanners specifically designed to receive simulcast sites are the SDS100 and SDS200.

Thank you all for your advice. I have purchased the SD100!
Treat it like, you have just bought a bar of gold:

The value of a gold bar depends on its weight and the current price of gold per ounce. Here are some examples of the value of different gold bar weights:
  • 1-ounce bar: A popular choice for investors, this bar is worth about $2,658.82 at a current price of $2,658.82 per ounce.
  • 10-ounce bar: Worth about $26,588.20 at a current price of $2,658.82 per ounce.
  • 1-kilogram (32.15 ounce) bar: Worth about $85,481.06 at a current price of $2,658.82 per ounce.
  • 400-ounce bar: Worth about $1,063,528 at a current price of $2,658.82 per ounce. This bar is often held by central banks and large financial institutions.

Gold is often considered a reliable hedge against inflation because it increases in value even when the purchasing power of the dollar decreases.'
I only say that, because. I keep reading(not just on RR) about situations where people use their SDS100, as if it was built like a Sherman tank. Most recently, I read about owner who had two antennas' break.
