Whistler TRX-1 Digital Handheld Scanner, Black

Product Information

Many people find Trx-1 easier to use than Trx-2. However, Trx-2 comes with superior performance and reliability. If your new review has not been Approved after several days you can assume that it was found to not be within the product review T's&C's shown below during screening. A built-in Discriminator Output provides raw discriminator signal to third party signal decoding software without risky hardware modifications. You will love its multiple-channel compatibility. Its compatibility range captures Motorola P25 Phase I, Phase II, X2-TDMA. Hence, you can enjoy different channels, including MotoTRBO, MotoTRBO Connect Plus, Capacity Plus, Hytera XPT, NXDN, etc. What is in the Box? A built-in discriminator output provides the raw discriminator signal to third-party signal decoding software without risky hardware modifications.

Whistler trx-1e digital trunking scanner with Motorola p25 phase nxdn and dmr, whistler has made a custom UK band plan for the scanners! This ensures the radios cover UK bands in the correct steps and the correct mode. When a user does a service scan it will search in the correct steps for the selected band ensuring maximum received stations. It does make it somewhat awkward to hold, especially with the belt clip on. If you have small hands, be mindful of this. The radios will receive both amateur and commercial DMR transmissions as apart from the frequency they are fundamentally the same mode. The radio is supplied with software and users can select mode when writing memories or select auto and it will work out the mode itself!

The price of Trx-1 is slightly less than that of Trx-2. It won't charge the batteries inside the radio or actually it will but the rate of charge is so restricted it days forever. Don’t allow a user to enter a text tag that will later be truncated. If the user tries to label a channel with 17 characters that can only be 16 maximum, disallow character 17.

MICRO SD CARD - to store the RadioReference data library and all of your programming - capacity for millions of stored objects! Support up-to 32 GB. Provides instant access to frequencies used by storm spotting networks. Monitor storm conditions as they occur and become aware of hazardous conditions before the media or emergency management officials are able to announce them to the general public. Power consumption. Kind of a wash here as so many things can affect battery life but in an effort to make it as close as possible I used the same brand and capacity batteries the 436 takes 3 and the TRX-1 takes 4 AA cells. Both radio’s had comparable run times. Both radio’s have low battery alerts you can program.

Best Features

BCD436HP came out in 2013; TRX-1 in June 2016. Like all new technology, there have been several upgrades. Import from WS-1040/WS-1065will allow you to import configurations from the WS1040 and WS1065. (or RS106/197/651/652/PSR500/600 models).

The Whistler TRX-1 is a multi-system adaptive digital trunking scanner with Motorola P25 Phase I&II, X2-TDMA, and DMR making it capable of monitoring the following unencrypted channels/systems: Conventional DMR, Hytera XPT, MotoTRBO™ Capacity Plus, MotoTRBO™ Connect Plus, and MotoTRBO™ Linked Cap Plus systems and NXDN. Frequency Coverage (MHz.)

Finance Available

The TRX-1 was the best scanner on the market (2016-June 2018) and comes with upgrades over older scanners. NXDN is also a long sought after format to monitor and the TRX is the only scanner capable of monitoring this out of the box. The case and color inserts are nice free add-ons to protect your scanner. The overall user experience is great and Whistler continues to roll out new, free updates for their flagship scanner. When will the TRX-1 go on sale? If this is not bad enough, then there is reality. The tri-colored LEDs are not perfect. If they were, an equal amount of Red, Green & Blue would produce a White color. In my case the Red was weak. The GRE models have a single place that you can "tune" your LED to get the 8 colors you want. The only way you can do this in EZ Scan is programming each LED color on a channel by channel basis. I was able to mitigate the pain of this by creating presets of the mixed colors (see right). This all might work today but I doubt that LED is going to have the exact same tuning levels in a year or two. Each of the GRE scanners I have with this feature are all tuned differently and need tweaking every so often. Restore Factory Defaultswill restore the factory defaults for the current V-Scanner folder except the welcome text. If you only cut a single channel, it would not import it. Seems it was expecting a header line as the first line. Funny though, it would import a single talkgroup when cut and pasted in the same manner.

Programmable tri-color LED displays thousands of colors that can be used to indicate different types of activity or activity on special channels. Program color sequences with multiple colors for special alerts, even emulate the red/blue strobe of police vehicles. EZ Scan software needs a major update. Any/all settings, channels, frequencies, etc. must be importable and exportable via file and/or clipboard.
