I know the subject is touchy, but with NAS on my APX8000, I hear MUCH MUCH less than the new SDS100 does. I have the same system programmed. Why would that be?

Your APX will only hear whatever talkgroups you have programmed into it, whereas your SDS100 might be in Search mode and be listening to talkgroups that aren’t programmed into your APX.

I programmed the talkgroups that I was interested in, similar to the service types selections on the SDS. I see some of them on the SDS that I have in my APX that I don't hear, at least not as consistent as I'm hearing with this SDS.

Are they both listening to the same site?
