Software Upgrades for Uniden Digital Scanners

After you have your Uniden police scanner professionally programmed by our expert police scanner technicians, you should ask about these three software upgrades.

You may need one or all three to be able to listen to the radio system utilized in your area, or even just a few specific channels that you hope to tune into.

There are three separate modes of transmission that Uniden requires a paid upgrade for in order to unlock certain channels and systems: 

• DMR
• NXDN
• ProVoice EDACS

*Please note that these modes of transmission are already unlocked on Whistler scanners such as the TRX-1 and TRX-2. Some Uniden scanners are ineligible for these upgrades, though the HomePatrol-2 has its own upgrade called the "Extreme Software Upgrade"*

I bought the upgrade & you sent me the code(s); now what?
