And yet the sample provided by Paul is clearly ACARS:
It also looks extremely noisy.

A discriminator is a necessary part of a circuit that can demodulate FM. It has no use on an AM signal. There might be a common point in the radio where baseband audio from an FM signal (the discriminator's output) and unprocessed audio from an AM signal are both available, depending on which mode is being received at the moment.

ACARS can be decoded perfectly from speaker or earphone audio. Digital modes sent via FM cannot.
Dave, I am well aware (and have been for more than 40 years) the difference between discriminators and detectors. My point is, for the benefit of non-techinicians, that the radio outputs a signal, from a plug-in jack, in response to software (you did look at the picture, didn't you?) from both AM and FM (reportedly) that can be used for analysis. You were arguing, uselessly and with no point, the semantics of what Paul (not a radio technician) said. Everyone with technical radio backgrounds and a lick of common sense knew what he meant, only you decided to harp on the choice of words.

Now that the dead horse has started to smell, leave it alone.

Trunking Discovery mode question

When you have”Compare to Database – select On”, is it comparing both the main and favorites or just one of them. Reason I’m asking is I have a large selection of talkgroups that are listed in my favorites for a P-25 system that are not listed on RR or the HP-1 main database.

when does the HP-1 update come out whats the date ?

:eek: It was posted at the beginning of this topic and a dozen time since that it will be released sometime in Mid-August, no exact date given. Just one page over UPMan says he's holding the release candidate for final testing and approval. Or you can go to HomePatrol

It is comparing only the one you picked. If you picked from Favorites List, that is the one it will compare to.

Wow, not a single post today on the soon to be released HP-1E. Guess everyone is just waiting now? I figured I wake up the topic. :D

And barring anything unexpected cropping up this weekend, we are still on-target for a mid-August release.

Sounds good. I hope when you say Mid-August your referring to the 15 or 16 since there are 31 days this month. I have my fingers crossed.

Once we get the HP 1 Extreme Update and I (or we) don't like it can we can go back and reload our old platform back in to the original settings ?? Or would we be stuck with the Extreme ?? Don't get me wrong I look forward to the Extreme and will load it up. Just looking for a back door out of the Extreme if there is one in case I need it.
