Seems to be quite basic digital receiver

 

[icemantim8]

According to the notes, it has a very limited frequency range as well....

The reception frequency range is 30 to 470MHz (some frequencies are excluded)

 

[pb_lonny]

Push it to 512MHz and I will buy one

Strange no P25 and would like TETRA

Strange it is like they don't want to sell in USA . No P25 , 470 Mhz limitation .

If the price is right, than I would certainly consider it as a secondary or tertiary receiver.

Display in the video looks nicer then the pictures.

Just a shame they put the "0" in the wrong place, but still not as wrong as on most CCR

It is good to see new gear.

Not very wideband. Like to see something from Alinco to compete with the R30 only with full digital coverage. Haven't bought an Alinco since my DJ-11X which is still a nice radio.

Interesting--but no cigar unless it includes P25 PII and covers at least thru 800 MHz.
Maybe this will stimulate some competition with other manufactures.

The frequency range (30-470MHz) of DJ-X100 is actually enough to cover commercial radios in Japan. P25 is used mainly by US forces in Japan and a few government agencies with encryptions. TETRA is mainly used at airports in Japan.

DJ-X100 reportedly has better descrambling functions than AR-DV1/10. The price is said to be 70,000JPY slightly cheaper than the current market price of IC-R30.

Can't do P25 phase 2 without having trunking.

In UK one of the dealers already published a price for it.

Maybe that's their intention...

It will not carry tetra or dpmr. Impractical radio for Europe.

 

[zerosix]

I really like the idea of having more options in the scanner market. I applaud the efforts and I do enjoy the aesthetics, but I have to agree; Tetra, P25 and dPMR are definitely needed for a 2023 scanner..

 

[palmerjrusa]

Has a USB C connector!!

At long last USB C connectors make it to amateur radio!

Yeeaaahh!!😀😀😀

I must say I do like the color changeable background on the display. Not a true wideband receiver sans medium/shortwave and anything above 470mhz though
