I'm tired of waiting for SDS200's to arrive so I'm considering lowering my sights to the BCD536 if it will work in my area. I lives in Eastern Marion Co. Tx. I want to monitor Caddo Parish(P25 Phase2), Bossier Parish(Motorola Type II Smartnet), TxDPS(P25 Phase2) and Marshall, Texas (DMR Tier3 multicast with Motorola TRBO) and Cass County, Tx.
My question arises with the last two systems. Cass Co.. shows dispatch on 155.740 both P25 AND analog. It's loud and clear on my old PRO-106 and says P25. Is multicast same as simulcast in regards to the Marshall Tx. PD?
I live 20 miles from ANYWHERE, so would simulcast (if applicable) be an issue for me as I'm on the edge of ALL these systems?
I am thinking the SDS200 is overkill for my needs but I DO need the TRBO & NXDN keys.
This is my 1st Post here though I've been lurking for months..learning things. I've loved scanning my whole life but never had any good hardware. I broke out my ancient (when scanning was simple) PRO-106 durng the ice storm last month and haven't turned it off since.
