Background: I am fully aware of the "Whistler gives us DMR for free and Uniden makes us pay for it" discussion, and I understand why that's the case and I own Uniden scanners with the paid upgrades. So please let's leave THAT debate out of this thread. I also used to have a Pro-668 with the Whistler firmware upgrade (worth every penny I spent on it). I ended up giving that scanner to my dad, and it does a great job for him on the DMR conventional frequencies the local police use.
Here's my situation. I would like to listen to *one* talk group on one of the local DMR trunked systems (SaiaNet, for those who live in Western NY). I have been using a BCD996P2 (with the DMR upgrade) to do that, but with the proliferation of DMR and NXDN in Monroe County I'd love to free that scanner up for other purposes.
So I'm looking for folks out there that are doing what I am looking to do ... listening to a single TG (or perhaps a two or three) on a DMR Motorola Connect Plus system using a Whistler scanner. How well does that work for you? Is that a viable option for me?
Thanks!
