I live in the Chicagoland area and scan with SDS-100. It does a fantastic job with picking up P25 I and II transmissions. I can hear simulcasts farther away than I thought I could. Analog is ok, not great, and so is WX. DMR reception, however, is non-existent. I have programmed about 3 DMR systems that are within 5-10 miles of my home, and I still can't hear anything. CAP+ and Data flashes on the display, and signal strength meter shows there is a good signal, but nothing is audible. Every once in a while a transmission is audible, but it comes and goes into the ether and there is no rhyme or reason why this happens. Another thing that I noticed is that I can pick up O'Hare airport operations DMR transmissions, but only if I'm literally sitting at the airport. I use the Sentinel software for programming and I update the database regularly. I have done all troubleshooting that I could image, starting with replacing the antenna, using all filter settings, and just about everything else I was able to find online. I am at a loss and hope someone can chime in.
