Great video. Loved the drone shots of the roof-mounted double discone! The Whistler TRX2 seems to be the cheapest home base scanner that offers Hytera XPT, MotoTRBO, DMR trunked. Decent wide range. I currently have a Uniden hand UBC125XLT, which is great for out and about, air shows, light home use. It's dead at present tbh. Both military and civil air traffic. I moved back to SW/MW Dxing at present! I thought I would stay with that Uniden due to the close call feature, but the Uniden SDS200E is close to £300 more! This is looking as if it will provide what I am looking for at home. Anyway, stay safe, 73's

It is a good receiver the only issue I have with it is that it is a single conversion receiver so quite prone to strong signal interference. Even with my proximity to Manchester Airport, civil traffic is very quiet now but still plenty of Mil stuff to listen to. Thanks for the comment.. 73's stay safe - G7EPN

Wish there was someone closer to show me how to use my TRX-2 because I live in the Bay Area and we have mostly non trunking frequencies but I cannot get my scanner to only scan the digital frequencies.

What’s the front end like on this? I have issues with my Uniden being overloaded due to a strong signal nearby, right in the middle of the air band that I listen to. I’m hoping this will be a better option without spending too much!

Does this need to be connected to an outdoor aerial to have good results, or will an indoor BNC be enough?

An outdoor aerial will be far better than any indoor aerial.

At 3:54 what is that noise the unit is making ? I am new to scanning and had that happen a couple times, I just locked those frequencies out.

Hi I need some help after setting the search limits and starting the search it will stop on a frequency with full bars but I get no audio, any idea what I’m doing wrong. If I use service search it has the audio, as does list scanning! Thank you!
@jiddster
@jiddster 3 жыл бұрын
Depending where you are scanning its probably a control channel, press the skip button to lock out that frequency.

It might be an open microphone channel. Or it might be your squelch. Check one of those.

Been using scanners for most of My life. Can anyone give me a reason to buy a whistler digital scanner and what other frequencies can you hear, other than a analog scanner??? anyone. Gov- frequencies have gone to TETRA so you cannot hear them .
@jiddster
@jiddster 5 жыл бұрын
I have found a lot of agencies around manchester are moving from analogue to DMR. Tetra can be decoded if not encrypted and this scanner does have an IF discriminator output to feed decoding software for TETRA
