Got the SDS100. Using it happily with Full Database in Franklin (Central) Indiana , picking up IMPD,MCSO, IFD, Lawrence & Speedway easily through the Indianapolis Metro system. Picking up Johnson, Barthlomew, Shelby, Morgan, Brown counties, DNR South, ISP Indy, ISP Bloomington on Indiana Safe-T easily.
My questions are: 1: on the line showing the Repeater, it samples Knight's Ridge, Wilkinson, Seymour, Rushville, Greenfield, Greensburg, Pendleton , & Hendricks County all approx. 30-40 miles away, along with the local towers. Obviously too far to recieve with a duck antenna. My distance is set to 10 miles. While I don't feel I'm missing too many transmissions, is there a way to omit/skip these faraway repeaters as the SDS100 never stops on these?
2: I'm setting up Favorites Lists in Sentinel. When I download individual counties/agencies should I select the local Safe-T towers within reason or will the database County presets do this for me?
As I said I'm happy scanning the Full Database, but as always a few tweaks may help, and I don't want to fix something that's not broken....
