“Today I’m taking a look and unboxing the Uniden SDS100 handheld scanner. Using True I/Q technology, it will pull in signals even in the weakest environment. There are so many features on this product that I cannot explain them all, but to start, I’ll show you about the product and in part 2, I will show it in use. This radio has been out of stock for a long time, and GigaParts just got a pallet shipment of these this week, and they won’t last long.”
Uniden creates another first with the SDS100 True I/Q Scanner, the first scanner to incorporate Software Defined Radio technology to provide incredible digital performance in even the most challenging RF environments. The SDS100’s digital performance is better than any other scanner in both simulcast and weak-signal environments.
The SDS100 is also the first scanner that allows you to decide what to display, where, and in what color. Custom fields put the information important to you right where you need it.
And, one more first, the SDS100 meets JIS4 (IPX4) standards for water resistance.
