SDS200 Analyze Function
31,335
Published 2019-02-26
To uses this function:
MENU → Analyze → System Status
The scanner prompts for a trunked system to analyze. In order to be analyzed, the system must
currently be scannable (in an active Favorites List or Main Database and within the range set for
scanning).
Enter the first few letters of the system name, then press E to see a list of all matching systems.
Scroll to the desired system, then press E. A list of scannable sites for the system is shown. Scroll
to the desired site, then press E. System Status mode starts.
• S=Signal Strength
• Q=Decode Quality
• A=System Activity

If you know a licensed ham radio operator they can help you to match an antenna to the frequencies you listen to. I monitor railroads only. I made an antenna that is cut to two meter 1/4 wave length. Don’t skimp on your antenna or the coax. A good antenna will increase your sound quality and distance from the transmitter tower.

Awesome video! New subscriber! Thanks for sharing, I have seen that function but never knew what it did! Thank you
-
Great informational advice!!👉
-
Thanks for a good demo of the analyze function. Just purchased a SDS200. Will try this out.

I had an SDS200 but sold it and moved to an XTL5000 and an APX8000 to non affiliate scan for the valley systems. And my 8k allows me to use it for ham which is nice.

Awesome ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I really don’t understand how you are going to use System ID, site ID, wacn and NAC after the analyze function reads them out from radio signal? Do you make a new FL list in your radio scanner and fill them in? Would it be possible for you to make a video to explain how to use these information?

Looking to buy can you pick up yuma and somerton az area i would like to know whats going on but cant find codes online is it trunking or what?

What is the LCN find? in my area I have a UHF control channel that comes on when I have close call on. I think it might be Edacs? or maybe DMR all I have is the one frequency the CC and I think I can find the other channels in the FCC data base. Well the LCN find help find the other frequencies Can I use discovery for that?

300/frequency=length of antenna in meters. thats for a 1/4 wave antenna which would be what you want.

Does the SDS perform much better than the 436 for LSM using stock antennas? I have a TRX1 too and it's not much better than the 436.

Any communications of interest are encrypted here in Australia, so what is there of interest to listen to ? Any Digital scanner will decode P25, so why spend more ?

I use p25 auto b bnc😤 antenna 😩😩😩😷😷😷

Use the best proper coax you can get, and ground the coax to a copper grounding rod outside in the earth, if that's not possible, find something that is. But you know. A tuned antenna is better, but limited, as compared to a wideband antenna. I select an antenna appropriate to the frequency that is most important to listen to.

ABSOLUTELY CLEAR AS MUD!!!!!

i like this modern design, and i would buy one in a second but $700 for a scanner? you guys are nuts! uniden is out of their minds charging the prices they do for scanners. the screen is just waaay to busy as well its all jumbled up.

The second indoor antenna you put in wasn't any better than the first one despite being tuned for 800 Mhz. Also, this is a moron engineering design function. They should have made the signal strength graph like the one in the upper right corner of the scanner (the cell phone type) with different sized vertical bars or put spaces between the stack so you could count bars. Now you have to visually measure if the stack is 654/1,000 or 459/1000 or 829/1000 of an inch. Uniden has some of the dumbest design people. Wonder if they came from Google.
