I don't have this scanner, but I thought the NXDN upgrade was a software unlock that you had to pay extra for?

In time I think most digital scanner manufacturers will go down this path, you pay for your choice of modes...
You can always vote with your wallet - and abstain..

Or buy the Whistler TRX1 instead which comes with NXDN as standard.

I went with that option ^^^^^^^ and got a TRX-1. No need to keep giving Uniden £ for modes that others come with as standard.

-- but as others say vote with your wallet.

I know this is an old post, I followed the instructions above and successfully updated my 3600 to Nxdn, i have picked some ids up everynow and then it will show nx4. What type do i save the frequencies as Mototrbo or Nxdn trunked? Sorry if this is in the wrong place.
