The reason I am looking dpmr is I was sitting outside our local supermarket beginning with L .i was listening on 446 on my SDS 100E and off cores they are using Bluetooth and scrambled so I am hoping that dpmr will allow me to receive them in the clear.

Sorry Not to confuse you, Just to make sure you will not get the wrong item scanner ...i am not so familiar with 446 mhz & what kind of noise you heard there, because it may be an other digital transmission. Just try to make sure what was the sound like A DPMR should sound similar to this at analog scanner https://www.sigidwiki.com/images/9/95/DPMR.mp3 But sometimes rear cases DMR can be used in unlicensed mode 446 mhz, how ever if was this case your sds-100e would had decoded already (not sure if it does automatic or need a special mode set)... So check/ask with the shop if the icom is the right one for you, Thanks

Dave, if you're talking about Lidl, on Channel 3, it's not dpmr that they use. It's "voice inversion". If you do a Google search, I'm sure there will be some sort of Windows software that will decode it for you. Although, all they'll be talking about is stock movement.
