Greetings All,
A friend of mine gave me an Uniden SDS200 (An early birthday gift) and I have a few technical questions that I am hoping someone can answer.
1) What is the maximum size of the SD card that can be used in this radio?
The time to startup is rather long, and I am thinking a faster card would help speed things up a bit.
8gb SD cards (of any speed) seem to have gone the way of the dinosaurs, so a much larger card will have to be ordered.
2) Is there a spec sheet somewhere on the format of the files on the SD card?
The manual hinted that the files came from the RadioReference database, so I would think there is some tech reference available somewhere.
I'm writing software (for Linux) to convert my data files for other radios into the 'favorites' file format.
I've managed to figure out about 90% of the file structures, but there are still a few mysteries to solve.
3) Along with the SD program, I am updating Serial/USB software as well.
The protocol spec sheet that I have is version .01 dated April of 2018.
This looks like a preliminary draft. Is there a more recent version available?
Thanx.
