They said that about every other "smoke and mirrors" solutuon and in the Philly area they have all fallen flat on their faces. So we'll see...
Unless you need NXDN.
"I've still haven't heard any NXDN with full bar reading from sites. DMR works great ,has does p25 phase1 & 2 systems."
So I think I've discovered why I'm not receiving anything, so hopefully Freescan updates their software to include DMR and NXDN,
cause right now,it labels them P25 systems.

The voice on the P25 system up the road is nice and clear.

Still could be confusing to new users. I will say if the need NXDN or DMR support they will have to pay for it from now on.

The upgrade is a ONE TIME purchase as they always have been, what do you mean by “from now on”?

I mean that is what I will say instead of update. And really no need to use caps to get my attention that it is a one time purchase I am well aware.
Bob just posted a PROSCAN UPDATE
I know I don't need to tell you this but I consider new firmware that fixes things to be an update to what you purchased originally, where as new firmware that actually adds new features and functionality is a upgrade to what you purchased originally. It's important to distinguish between the two as some people seem to think new features and capabilities should always be free because they already paid for the scanner. I know Whistler was an exception to that but normally upgrades in anything are not free.
im not seeing that. How did you get that? im running version 14.7 even after checking for updates

You need to be in the SDS, Unication, or commercial class of devices for that system:
System Type: Project 25 Phase II System Voice: APCO-25 Common Air Interface Exclusive
Don't expect 996/325P2 class device to properly decode TDMA when it doesn't have the hardware for it. Got it?
The release is not official yet therefore it won't show when checking for updates.

Depending on location and a bunch of other things that is not necessarily the case.

One of the upgrades in the new firmware "Improved the clarity of digital voice" is working good here on one digital frequency.
Much better than what it was before the upgrade.
Thanks again!

Is this correct I downloaded the Tn District 7 NXDN system to one of my 996P2's and the LCN's are different from my 536's
