I know the Enhanced key, but we don't have the RAS code. By configuring the Motorola or Hytera radios that support ARC4 E.P., can I listen without setting up RAS, or will I not receive any signals? Thanks to anyone who can help me. View article »

He still hasn't received the SDRs but got an email from DHL shipping stating that he owes $107 in tariff fees.

02-25-26 I know next to nothing about current CB...

Well, now I live in a retirement community with a lot of folks older than me who do not have and do not want a computer, so I get tapped to "find the best deals" on stuff.

I configured the scanlist to monitor all fire, EMS, and law groups. I seem to be receiving police transmissions, but not Fire/EMS. I am monitoring side by side with my old analog scanner. There have been several dispatches on the analog scanner that I am not receiving on the TRX-1. Likely, I have something set up or configured incorrectly, but any... Read more View article »
