Its the one that came after the HP 1. Home Patrol 1 and Home Patrol 2.
Could you add one but not the other?
Like add DMR capability but not NXDN?
Come on you know what it is.
I have a rock...
You guys do know what day it is right?

And I have paper and scissors.
A day that ends in Y is my guess. Unless you believe in a foolish day.
Exactly right!
The HP-02 was a planned successor to Hewlett Packard's HP-01 LED calculator watch, which was originally introduced in 1977. It would have had an LCD display and other improvements but the project was canceled at the prototype stage in 1979.

Wait, What. The HP2 does DMR? I was not aware of that. I must have missed the memo.
My comment was about adding DMR to the HP2 and not adding NXDN.
Since the whole discussion has been about HP2 and it not having DMR or NXDN.
You quoted my comment then said it has DMR. But i am talking about the HP2, not the 996P2.
Uniden has to apply their resources to the continuation of development in SDR, which is the future. Going backwards to address old devices beyond a very limited level won't be practical moving forward. Older units will be sold by those who need more, to serve people who are content with their capabilities, and some scanners will join the collections of those who horde scanners for the sake of hording them. This is the fate of old scanners. It has always been this way, but with the scanner market shrinking for the reasons we all know, and because scanner development is getting more expensive and more challenging, support for old devices will probably be shortened more abruptly than in the past.
I support Uniden in doing whatever they have to do to survive, further improve the SDS units, and to work on the next generation of SDR scanners. If I cried over every scanner that I bought that no longer sees regular use or got sold, I would have drowned in a river of tears long ago. It's a reasonably expensive hobby.
