<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Mid last year I had the chance to secure a Whistler TRX-1 handheld thinking I would cart it everywhere<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">and listen to all those channels that interested me from yesteryear...<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I configured for the Malls (for the most DRM 2 slot repeaters) the usual analogue fire and ambos and my local airfield etc..<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Even the HICKS site repeater I have close to me... BUT it never leaves my desk to be honest.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">With the interest shown on our group to those wanting to get stuck into this side of scanning...<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">NOPE it won't decode P25 encryption and knows to mute the noise however as I found out recently there are trials (or<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">now permanent) with Fire Police working the UHF P25 repeaters in Auckland and it was neat to have them pop out if the silence.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anyway best price I could find at the time was 500 US dollars... I hunted at the time too!<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">So the only thing I can't offer is the packaging.. As new scanner with manuals with original antenna!<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">All upgrades done as of this week.. They have addressed lots of issues with drivers etc so it programs perfectly<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">from my desk top...<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">hit enter.. But object based scanning with Groups, Scanlists etc have become the way moving forward once you move away from analogue.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Once again a buzz when you master it and the channels liven up. My first trip to our local Westfield made me very smug to know I could<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">listen in again to their catering, cleaning and security channels..<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">channels you decide your listening pleasure and your off! Well until their local site changes its control channel then they grizzle. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">No one appears to want to learn about adding the extra channel from first principles over there.. <o:p></o:p></p>
