I have owned many scanners over the years. All have been either the Realistic brand that was sold by Radio Shack or Uniden. Yes, this radio is expensive. But this radio offers a lot of capability for that investment. This is probably the best scanning receiver I have ever owned. The receiver in this radio is pulling in signals I could not hear before without being overwhelmed by stronger signals on adjacent frequencies. The scan speed is impressive. The setup can be as easy or as difficult as you wish to make it. In my experience, the Sentinel software is needed to maximize the value of the scanner. Taking time to learn the software will greatly enhance your scanning experience. If the idea of working with Sentinel intimidates you, there are lots of videos on the tubes of you that can teach you about Sentinel. There are some things I do not like. I do not like how Uniden chose to implement WX features. I find it to be awkward and clunky. I do not like the fact that some of the functions that are required to make certain digital services work are considered optional and must be purchased separately from the Uniden website. Geez...I just paid $700 for a radio and you're telling me I gotta spend another $150 for software licenses to actually listen to digital radio?! I'm not real happy with Uniden for that one. For $700, those licenses should be included. The network port is pretty worthless unless you plan to remote control the radio. And putting on the font panel ... WTH? I would much prefer a built-in bluetooth capability. AND, if you use that LAN port, it interferes with access to the micro USB port that you will use frequently when programming or upgrading your radio with Sentinel. The micro SD card is difficult to remove and insert, and it is limited to 32GB. I'm not sure why Uniden chose to put a female USB A port on the front of the unit. It's an odd choice and an odd location for that odd choice. Fundamentally, this is a very good receiver with some very nice capabilities. Unfortunately, some of the design and marketing choices make this a very good radio as opposed to an excellent radio.

Excellent full featured scanner! Very happy with my purchase!

After another ham told me about this, I went into research mode. I tried the RTL SDR dongles and were ok with them. I want to hear my local FD. After I put my location in, it was scanning EVERYTHING. I installed the sentinel software and made favorites and turned off what I didn’t want. This was an awesome purchase. Connectivity is easy, setup took no time. For a small unit, it does a great job. The audio isn’t bad and at no point did it garble. The unit is VERY LIGHT! Double side tape it down! Use the front usb to connect to the computer. There are tons of YouTube videos on it.

J’ai acheté le SDS 200 je le recommande meilleur radio qu’on peut avoir pour scanner je m’attendais pas à ça mais ça m’a impressionné malgré que j’avais d’autres radios scan Je le recommande
