Been a while since I last posted here. Ended up getting a job.
Now that I have a job and have purchased a steam deck (For those of you that do not know what a steam deck is, it is valve's portable gaming PC), I am looking at saving up and purchasing an SDS100 Scanner.
Have a couple of questions about it.
1. Should I buy it directly from the uniden website? If so, does it come with the NXDN out of the box? (On second thoughts, I may not get/use the NXDN upgrade, since most agencies I want to listen to use VHF/UHF, DMR & Project 25 Phase II, Only found one agency in my area which uses NXDN).
2. Is it easy to learn how to program the SDS100 (Going to download the manual from uniden's website & start reading, even though it will be a couple of months before I can get one ) coming from a Radio Shack Pro-164? I will probably end up getting the ARC programming software for the SDS100, as that is what I use for my Pro-164.
3. Are there any other scanners, regardless of brand, I should consider?
