After keeping up with all the threads concerning the SDS100 bugs and fixes and shortcomings, the LSM monitoring compared to 436s and G5s, I feel I made a very wise decision in waiting to purchase the Uniden SDS100. Nothing on Uniden, the SDS100 is a complex piece of engineering, combining both radio electronics and computer software, and very challenging to design I would think. I am sure I am but one of many who have been burned by being a first adopter of a new release and decided to wait this one out.
I am waiting for the firmware fixes to be implemented. The hardware designs to be corrected, the Sentinel issues resolved, and the larger battery issued in a second run unit production. I am hoping they have all of this straightened out by the end of the year. I am patiently waiting with my $649.99 in hand.
Maybe the other waiters out there could chime in on specific fixes they are waiting on. I will start the list with a few observances...
Better LSM reception and UHF reception
Backlight toggle fixed
Redesign on the sma battery connection to accept after-market antennas
Larger battery and new battery door
Feel free to jump in there both other waiters and first adopters....
