Whenever a new person like Brian (W1BP) asks about buying a high-end scanner then says they don't need DMR, I always caution on the side of, "you may regret not having that capability" soon down the line.
I live in Los Angeles and have most of the P2 scanners, including the WS1098, RS668, 436 and 536HP, HP-2, TRX-1 and 2, and the 996P2. I added the DMR updates to the 436HP and 536HP, and bought the TRX-1 and 2 with DMR already available, never expecting that there would be much on DMR. After all, the database did not have much DMR listed (now of course it is increasing).
But in doing searches, I come up with all kinds of DMR activity here in Los Angeles. I was in San Francisco Bay area last week for few days. Had two 436HPs with me. Entered the zip code, and there was all kinds of DMR stuff up in the Bay Area. Without the DMR updates, I would have missed a lot of activity.
So my recommendation to new folks like Brian is that if you are going to spend upwards of $400-$500 anyway for a scanner, get one that has at least has DMR (and NXDN) capability in the future. You will find a lot of stuff.
So often I see my colleagues on RRDB recommend to "newbies" that they should consider what they want to listen to before they buy a scanner. I am of the opposite opinion. It is not until you really listen to all the stuff out there, that you really then know what might interest you in the long run. If you're in a rural area and you only have a few analog stations, fine, you don't need much of a scanner to monitor things.
But I went to QRZ and see that W1BP is in Westford MA near Worcester (where I was born, but came out to Calif at age 7, now age 67) and Boston. There is probably tons of interesting stuff to listen to there that you can't begin to imagine. My two cents worth.
