New Uniden SDS100 Handheld

[sibbley]

On Universal website, under "Scanner Receivers", it's shows updated 1/18/2018. This update reflects the addition of this new radio. Yesterday there was no update. I check every day in case you were wondering.

Where did you find the link? Under Bearcat?

Probably was meant to be offline draft for when it's announced. But accidentally posted public.

This site copied some info & pics
The Btown Monitoring Post: Uniden to Release New Scanner SDS-100 Handheld

Did a search of Universal's website nothing came up.

I talked with Fred this morning and they had not added it yet to their index. The only way to get there is the link. As he told me on the phone, what they have right now is what you see on this page https://www.universal-radio.com/catalog/scanners/6100.html and nothing more. We can only wait to see what will develop. And no it was not accidently leaked to the public.

Question 1 How did you find this page?
Question 2 If this has NXDN and DMR capabilities then I am very interested?
Question 3 I bet if this is true Uniden is very mad about a leak?

Lol...betcha these questions never get answered. By the OP anyway... :roll:

If you look below the copyright notice on each page there is some barely readable text. If you drag your mouse over it and highlight it you'll see some information. The BCD436HP page seems to indicate a date of 1/18 on this line, which is probably the update.

Well, sounds like it may be real. This will get interesting...

Plus I'm already cringing at the expectation of the price tag....

Me also guessing it will be out of the average scanner enthusiasts budget.

A rugged version of 436 home patrol with color screen, SYS DEPT CHAN soft keys & built in sdr receiver when hooked up to a computer. But do I want a $600+ Sdr radio when they can be had for $15?

Focus on the radio and reception and I'll use a USB Sdr radio as well separately

There is a post at The Btown Monitoring Post showing pictures related to the SDS100 and referencing a conversation this morning (01-18-2018) with Fred Osterman (the owner of Universal Radio) regarding the Uniden SDS100: The Btown Monitoring Post: Uniden to Release New Scanner SDS-100 Handheld

Hey, i think we need to let them alone and their work that way we get a QUALITY product

This doesn't need to be like intel releasing junk x299 platform when AMD released their threadripper platform

This thread needs to die so we can let Upman work on it a release a QUALITY product

100% agree.

As they say playing Craps in Vegas when trying to make the point: Come on baby.....

Good reasoning for sure.

Someone gets it. R&D, competition, Corporate Management freak-outs after they find out about the leak....let them get it right without pressure.

 

[Airboss]

Well that is interesting. The link at Universal is now gone. Maybe it was a mistake after all.

Only the OP can request that the thread be closed. Click on the Exclamation Markand make the request.

Don't expect it to kill the (UNINFORMED) speculation, however.

What's up? Link in first post is still working on my end.

It's possibly coming from the cache in your browser if you previously viewed the working link.

The "photo" at The Btown Monitoring Post looks like it's a computer generated graphic rather than a photo of a physical product.

Some food for thought: this could have been an intentional leak by Uniden. Afterall, there has been a lot of "wailing and gnashing of teeth" here (probably elsewhere) over Uniden's apparent lack of progress on...well...anything. This was probably meant to calm some of that down.

It looks like an interesting product. I'm hoping that the "huge color LCD that is user customizable" also includes the ability to choose the colors. Along with, of course, integrated GPS.

He is not the OP.

He is not the OP.

Roger that!

Considering that the 436hp is no longer being produced, the new model won't be far behind.
