Hi!

Looking for Uniden (Upman) to give us an update when the second shipment of SDS100 will arrive and available at the dealers?

Thanks,

He's on vacation. Your dealer will probably have better info on timing if they are willing to share.

Jon, I jumped the gun with my original post today. I did just as you suggested and learned stock will arrive this week (Friday) or (Monday). I 'm just getting impatient hearing all these great reports and not having one. Thanks for your support.

FYI Zip Scanners is currently showing that "The Uniden SDS100 is in stock; ready to ship." Here's the direct link if you want one: https://www.zipscanners.com/uniden-sds100-police-scanner.html

FYI that doesn't mean much, they've said that before when they didn't actually have the SDS100 in stock.

They actually have some on stock. Ordered mine last night shipped early this morning.

After the previous snafus/mix ups with actual in-stock inventory status, Zip Scanners has definitively stated that if it says "in stock; ready to ship" on their website it is accurate at that point in time.

You can thank me in part for that after my contact to the Minnesota Better Business Bureau.

They also said they have the GPS adapter cable in stock today at Zip Scanner for those looking for one. Most others are saying August.

A better choice for that GPS adapter cable (Uniden BC-UTGC) would be the FactoryOutletStore.com which has it currently listed on their website as "In Stock" and it is currently on sale until 06-28-2018 for $19.95 with FREE shipping included: https://udn.factoryoutletstore.com/details/611522/uniden-bc-utgc.html

Zip Scanners' price for the same Uniden BC-UTGC cable is $29.99 plus $6.99 shipping ($36.98 total): https://www.zipscanners.com/bcd325p2-gps-adapter-cable.html

Thanks for the link to Uniden Outlet Store. After my experience with zip, I wouldn't consider doing business with them again. I placed a backorder through Universal Radio last week and it is still out of stock. I will call them tomorrow to cancel.

You're welcome. Actually you are better off with the FactoryOutletStore.com deal of $19.95 with FREE shipping included (and currently in stock) as Universal Radio charges $14.95 plus $6.95 shipping ($21.90 total) for the BC-UTGC and, as you posted, it is currently out-of-stock/back ordered at Universal.

Sure looks like the wrong one, but an out of focus photo my be wrong.


It needs to terminate with a mini-usb, same as your SDS power /data cable.

That cable is for connecting to a BCD996T, BCD396T, BCD996XT, BCD396XT, or BCD436HP. It is included with the BC-GPSK.

The GPS cable that you need for your SDS100 is the Uniden BC-UTGC cable. (BTW that same cable also works with the BCD325P2.) Here's a link to it "direct from the horse's mouth" on the Uniden website: https://www.uniden.com/shop/communication/gps-usb-cable/

For some reason Zip Scanners has 2 different web pages on their website for the same GPS cable. One web page has it listed for use with the BCD325P2 and another web page has it listed for use with the SDS100.

BCD325P2 GPS cable web page at Zip Scanners: https://www.zipscanners.com/bcd325p2-gps-adapter-cable.html

SDS100 GPS cable web page at Zip Scanners: https://www.zipscanners.com/sds100-gps-cable.html

The thing that may have you scratching your head is that on both of those web pages it clearly states "Availability: In stock" BUT on the SDS100 GPS cable web page it also clearly states "Out of stock till early Aug." Make of that what you want.

Both pages are picturing the USB-1, which works with neither scanner...so confusing. I messaged them about it.
