My old SPORTCAT and TRUNK TRACKER not of a lot of use these days. I hear the newer Scanners May get me back into more scanning. Looking at the UNIDEN BCD436HP and have compared it to the SDS100. I live in the U P of Michigan now, Chippewa County city of Sault Ste. Marie. Looks like a lot to scan up here only scan Fire and some of the Locks now. Looking to Scan Police, Fire, EMS, Customs, Border Patrol, Coast Guard and Marine. I know some have Encryption, and it doesn’t look like any Simulcast Systems up here. Does it look like the BCD436HP is the right(cost) choice? What about upgrades of DMR, NXDN or ProVoice EDACS are they needed? Would it be best to have them program or just use Zip Code. I use a laptop although not real well. Thanks for any advice or comments.
