04-10-26 How to use SDS100 to find the DMR... I have a SDS100 and I am monitoring a local radio system.

They are on a VHF system with output/receive frequencies between 153-161 Mhz, and have 2 channels per site. The Color Code is the same for each channel, but they use Slot 1 for Channel 1, and Slot 2 for Channel 2. My question is, how can I use the SDS100 to determine the transmit frequency for the radios?I have tried to use the waterfall option, but can't seem to catch the input. I am NOT going to transmit (I am using the scanner... Read more View article »

I have several CCR captures, but I'd really like to see Motorola captures. .bin and .wav raw files seem to work best. FWIW, I'm looking to test an AES-OFB keystream/cipher frame generator.

Sure, thirty years ago some people used listen to baby monitors and cordless phones... but isn't that a thing of the past now? I guess one could listen to CB... but really why bother? The reason I bring this up is because a fellow senior is considering a scanner (yes I'm slowly converting everyone), anyway he was looking at the Uniden BC125AT, but in the back of my mind I was wondering if I should even...

04-10-26 Motorola KVL and EKU (Encryption Key Utility) Hi all, I reached out to Tech Support but haven’t heard back yet, so I wanted to try here as well.

Is there a way to load encryption keys from a KVL into the EKU, or directly into the G5 series pagers? We have a customer interested in using pagers for off-duty firefighters so they can carry them instead of bulky Motorola radios, but many of the channels are encrypted. Any guidance would be appreciated. View article »
