no its not digital, and in programming you change the channel spacing to what you need.

not really, however that is a problem with digital tuners, the same thing can happen with fm, you are most likely at the fringe point of that 1100 station. Good luck.

Hi fellas! Quick question, is this a radio that a newbie would be able to learn to use, perhaps with a modest amount of instruction?If it is, Ed, would you like to sell yours? Thanks!

This is down in the VHF band, nothing on the analog channels around here, but the antenna does pick up FM radio some. This antenna is not designed for the lower freqs which usually require much longer elements. Might do ok with nearby stations? Note that all digital channels are now in the higher UHF band.

I'm quite sure it is a digital tuner though I am not positive. I have it at another site and will be at that site on Saturday. I could check for you. Let me know. It works very very well. And the price is simply unbeatable.

Yes the stations are digital. When you turn the dial each click represents decimal (105.7, 105.8, 105.9) you can hold the button in and it will seek. There is a woman voice that will tell you what station you stop on. I love the headphones and I only wish I had bought years ago. Your going love them.

Hi. Yes, it picks up digital stations for me. Unfortunately, it just didnt get all the major networks. However, for those channels I did get, they were great quality. A friend of mine uses one of these and he gets all the channels available.

This scanner is not digital meaning that it cannot pick up new digital police frequencies. We are not refering to the display. but its receive frequencies. This is a analog scanner.

The frequency codes are preset in the radio. Look in the manual and it will guide you to what you need to do for codes> Look on pages 24-25

It's a ham radio that operates out of band. Without checking if it's frequency range covers it then it should. It depends on what pl codes, offsets and repeater frequencies you're using.

It will tune in any over-the-air broadcast that your digital antenna will pick up. The key here is the digital antenna. I used one when I moved a year and a half ago, and it was fine because I had good reception in the area. Then I moved again a couple of months ago, and I couldn't pick up anything...zero...zilch...nada! Where I'm at now, I'm kind of down in a valley, and it's impossible to pick up a signal. Bottom line, it will tune anything that your antenna will pick up.
