UNBOXING ALINCO. DJ-X100 , Dstar , DMR. C4FM / Analogue Digital Scanner

[@martuk7707]

Is that keypad a membrane type or just touch? I’d be worried about that set button breaking through the membrane. Looks like a nice radio though

[@onurbespinar]

Yeap it is. Price rising quality falling. One more reason to cross Alinco from shopping list.

[@lostangeles4476]

Cool tech. Thanks. Wish there was more worth listening to and unencrypted in US cities to make buying one worthwhile.

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

There is alot

[@AdamSWL]

Limited frequency coverage and non tactile keypad.
Otherwise it looks promising.
Glad you got one Andreas!

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Thanks Adam more to learn .

[@pmr446]

nooo this is the Japanese verison ! you should have waited until the E vesrion comes out because you can't change the Menu to English !

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

It's ok

[@binaryswinery5862]

Is there more to listen to on digital compared to analogue frequencies ?

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Both have loads

[@Robbie-sk6vc]

Depends on where you are!

[@mrkevin6354]

Does it have a roger beep?

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Lol

[@arthurtwoshedsjackson6266]

First I’ve seen someone with one of these. How much etc

[@lostangeles4476]

Looks like about $600 on Ebay from Japan. The AOR DV10 referenced goes for about $750 to $900.

[@arthurtwoshedsjackson6266]

@@lostangeles4476I saw it on various groups a few years ago. Guess they have finally done it

[@MartinAndersonSatanSon]

Too much money for what is actually does. No thanks

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Ok

[@radiotory]

It would be great if it could transmit in such modes too

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

[@radioholicy]

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

[@radioholicy]

[@JimiDjango1]

Hi

[@LMGGPMG]

£500 and no TX wow.

[@HamTechRadioScannerDrones]

Be more like £800 in uk

[@LMGGPMG]

@@HamTechRadioScannerDrones wow wow

[@pmr446]

It's a scanner, and it's one of the only Japanese scanner that actually has DMR mode, so it's worth it, especially if you live in Europe.

[@LMGGPMG]

@pmr446If that's directed at me you can keep DMR, that's one mode I will not entertain.

[@pmr446]

@LMGGPMG but this scanner isn't just for ham radio listening, it's designed for scanning everything. Most utility channels (security, business, rail,) ect uses DMR now so it's needed for listening.
