Hi I just purchased and programming it with the ez scan software it's very different prigramming with the laptop. Nothing like the Uniden's
I like this scanner it's A LOT easyer to program than ANY of the uniden's. And P25 AUDIO is
clearer !

In some ways it's better than Uniden when it comes to audio and not needing to enter LCN values for trunked sites and its digital decoder are of much higher quality, but in other ways it's worse.

For trunked systems it can be slow to pick up a conversation where a Uniden instantly catches it, but at the other hand Uniden seems to skip some conversations where TRX finds them all, especially when it comes to private radio to radio conversations. But TRX have a worse receiver as it both have issues with strong signal and are not as sensitive as Unidens scanners.

There's no perfect scanner but Uniden anyways has the general best scanner for weak signal and complex system monitoring. If they only could sort out their digital decoding issues. But their firmware team are in Asia and there's never a good idea to have important and crucial development being done so far away from where the software are to be used and it can also create a difficult language and culture barrier.

The easiest way would be to use the Library Import tab in E-Z Scan, Whistler's software for their database models.

Note that the talkgroups for your parish (Livingston) are P25 Phase I, not Phase II. LWIN itself is also tagged as being a Phase I system.
