$699 for a handheld that requires a paid upgrade for several types such as NXDN. Too pricey for me.

Details options and cost and what day to buy it

 

[wx5uif]

Awesome. Just missing the mobile version now.

 

[Jay911]

Hate to pick nits, but the press release says expected 2Q17. That's 2Q18 is it? (hopefully not 19...)

*Paid Upgrade for 6 different voice formats ��

"Upgrade might not be available upon initial release." ...... fool me once Uniden.....

Might have to pass on this one 699 MSRP Plus paid Upgrades.

 

[MtnBiker2005]

Slated for release in 2nd Quarter, 2017, the SDS100 carries an MSRP of $699*.

 

[UPMan]

Fixed 5 minutes ago. 2Q18.

Ouch, your looking at almost a $1000 handheld with all the upgrades.

I'll buy one as soon as NXDN is available on it. I don't need LSM support currently. Then again, the display looks awesome. I imagine I'll buy it as soon as available just based upon the display.

No. We did not want to adversely affect Jon's supplemental income.

So LSM reception has been fixed? Is that what "incredible performance in even the most challenging RF environments means?"

* DMR: MOTOTRBO Capacity+, Connect +, DMR Tier III, Hytera XPT, Single-Channel DMR (5)
* EDACS Provoice (1)
* NXDN 4800 and 9600 (2)

I take it's the same standard pricing as previous models?

 

[OregonScanner]

If it does P25 simulcast I don't care how much it costs. I'm buying one.

Hahaha.[emoji38]

The intro poster on the YouTube video makes it look like 6 separate, still outside of my budget. Oh well.

Now if I could have the options of Aegis, VSELP, and OpenSky digital formats offered for sale in the scanners...
