I know, ANCIENT thread revivial...
How many of us are still playing with P25, versus DMR these days?
I've got an old VHF Astro Saber III, but don't use it because my CPS software was old & buggy &I have to use the damn interface box between my computer & radio to program it. I've got a couple EF Johnson 5100s (cheap equivalent of XTS-5000), but don't use them either & want to sell off the old stuff.
Like everyone, I'd love to get a VHF/UHF handheld & mobile that does FM/P25 & DMR but it seems like if someone was going to do that, it would have happened by now.
For DMR, I've got a Motorola XPR7550e -- nice, but unless you use it a lot CPS is just a nuisance.
I'm saving up my pennies for this:
https://www.amazon...KJLB3LY/ref=sr_1_1 One great feature is that you can put it into Discovery mode, and it'll give you ANY DMR voice traffic on the frequency, plus give you the Color Code, Time Slot & Talk Group info. That's especially handy for those of us that like to monitor commercial DMR systems.
