Radio Shack has recently made available the PRO-197 mobile and PRO-106 handheld digital scanners. These scanners are made by GRE and more than resemble the GRE PSR-600 and PSR-500. From what all has been said, the guts of these new Radio Shack scanners are the same as their GRE counterparts, and the features mimic those features [...] Recently Radio Shack came out with the PRO-197/PRO-106 (mobile / handheld equivalents to the GRE PSR-600/500). Shortly after, they had a sale (3 or 4 days in Mid December 2008) – these normally $500 digital scanners were selling for $279 (with a 20 dollar coupon) + tax. Insane pricing. Everybody and their mother (including myself) [...] niden recently sent out a news release to its scanner users regarding some new scanners. UPMan over at the RadioReference forums posted the details there as well. You can read the post here: http://www.radioreference.com/forums/showthread.php?t=120243 BC396XT Trunk Tracker IV – follows trunked traffic on APCO 25, Motorola, LTR, and EDACS systems (including EDACS systems using ESK) The EDACS ESK support [...] It’s been a while since I posted. GRE continues to go above and beyond what any of us users have come to expect. Not enough good things can be said about GRE Support. CPU Firmware 1.6 has been released for the PSR-500/600. DSP Firmware 1.3 is still the latest DSP code. In reading what was fixed/added [...] You know, all of my life I’ve ridden motorcycles / ATVs. For the most part, I wear a helmet. I don’t like the thought of having my brains ooze out after an accident, and if there is a chance that a helmet may prevent that should a situation arise, you can bet I hope I’m [...] As has been very typical of GRE thus far, they have released yet another firmware update that has fixed a few small bugs as well as added a few new features. Read the full news entry for the update here: http://www.greamerica.com/support/index.php?_m=news&_a=viewnews&newsid=12 Judging by the discussion on RadioReference , the new features were very well received by users [...] It has been ~ 4 months since I wrote my first semi-review of the PSR-500. By no means did I [or will I] write a comprehensive review. But I’ll give readers a taste of what I think after having become familiar with the scanner and having relied upon it for [...] I made the move to a new place a few weeks back. This place is only a few minutes from my old place, but for HF listening it’s a dream for me. The neighborhood has all underground utilties. No more AEP poles, distribution lines or high tension towers surrounding my property. [...] You know what I’m talking about. The transformers, insulators, and other garbage that eminate huge amounts of static. They are all over the neighborhood. Years ago I attempted to get something done about it, but nothing happened. One of the AEP guys who came out was a ham. I’m betting he thought he knew [...] |
