    I have both radios for about a year now. I totally forgot about the USB A jack on the front until you mentioned it. I'll be using it from now on to charge stuff at my desk. THANKS!!!!

    G'day to you, thanks for your videos.. You talk price.
    In Australia I paid Au$950 for the radio it came with the small battery. I had to buy the large battery Au$150, then I needed a local SD card Au$50 so Au$1150 all up not cheap and I find it difficult to use. I'm learning. One very important thing is please backup your sdcards I have a few spare, just incase and I'm glad I did because I have stuffed things up.. HooRoo from Australia 🇦🇺

    Thanks for the video. I did purchase the Butel software but it would only allow me to load 99 Favorite lists (FL). I have over 200 FL. And if you loaded 99 FL it will erase the the other FL on the SD card! So I use the Butel software sparingly and mostly for the screen on the computer and for recording the hits from the scanner.

    Hi my name is Donald and I am thinking of getting a sds200. I have seen people say that the sds200 will not work in Los angles because of encryption. I live in Riverside 92505 a part of L.A. I think. I am new to this so thank you for all the help. I have no idea what add on to get or if they will work in my town or if I even need them. Thanks again

    A lot of communication centers use the SDS200 scanners for monitoring other agencies in their area. It's become an invaluable tool for many professionals. I was surprised to hear you refer to it as "the hobby" @16:37. I suppose you can make a hobby out of any activity, but to call monitoring a scanner "the hobby", sounds strange to me. Thanks for the information on BuTeL software (I bought the Pro version).

    I know that my question doesn't involve any of the scanners in this video but I have a hp2 and the signal bars are non existent. There is no problem within the unit and I do sometimes get 1 or 2 bars for about a second or two then nothing. Should I get an external antenna or a signal booster?

    Gad, this thing is over $1,000 when you upgrade it to actually work and still no bluetooth.. I dunno, it feels super cheap and the battery sucks so you have to buy more batteries. My TRX-1 does nxdn and dmr but doesn't handle simulcast so I have a couple Unication G5s for simulcast.

    while it's decent piece of technology it's already outdated.
    there are 1000s of thransmitions a sec so you won't know what to listen to and if what you are listening to is of any interest to u.
    then what could be of interest to u this unit may not be able to pick up nor decode nor follow.
    I had SDS 100 and BCD436 - sold them both.

    First thing to know.. Waste of money. Don't buy these paperweights. Buy Rtl-Sdr's dongles instead and download free scanner software. Million times better setup with a few usb sdr's and a dedicated PC. We upping 40 calls a min to broadcastify calls with only 5 rtl-sdrs running 10 feeds. You aint ever doing that on a SDS200.

      Well that's going to be kind of hard to keep in the jacket while in the field. For a non-portable home based setup perhaps but still a bit of a headache unless you want to run dedicated hardware, software and a computer 24/7.
