I took my PRO-96 back. A scanner for $500.00 with no military air coverage?
There is also a CPU bug (Just like the Pro-93) concerning talkgroups and
when Radio Shack was contacted asking about
a fix. They played dumb. I would go with a Uniden BC296.

I went to the RS store in the Palmdale mall today. Just got back.
The guy in the store did not know what the PRO-96 is. He had to look it

up
on the computer. So to try to find out anything like the version 1.1, 1.2
or 1.3. or any questions on how to run it is not going to happen. This

kind
of stuff is why I try to not buy Radio Shack stuff. But I keep hearing

the
PRO-96 is a good scanner so if I can find some Radio Shack guy that knows

a
little something I will get one.
I would get one from E Bay or other on line store but I can't know what
version it is.

to
know haw you like it? I understand that it has a lot of pre program

systems built in to the radio. Do you find this useful? The Uniden

that
has
the digital card built in costs more, Is it worth it.

I thank you for any information you can give me good or bad.
