Looking at what is known so far about the Uniden SDS150, I cannot see that it is an upgrade for me to the SDS100 that I already have.

The problem I am running into is that it has a TO channel identifier as 08501. Yeah the radio folks in my area do crazy setups. SDRTrunk will not accept 08501 as an identifier in the Alias settings, it changes it so simply 8501 which then doesn't translate correctly to Corrigan PD. It will only show 08501 in the current playing slot instead of Corrigan PD. Have... Read more View article »
