Hi Mike!

Yes I did, I still get the same thing although when I punch in the frequency
in the channels, I get the wrong frequency but when I go back to check, it
is correct. Sometimes even the mode gets screwed up, sometimes I get AM or
WFM mode as well. I'm wondering if it is a power problem, maybe the logic
board isn't getting full voltage, the scanner cut out on me totally for
about a second or two and came back on but it was totally clear, all the
channels were open, waiting to be programmed again. It's like it had a
lobotomy. I've been busy, otherwise I'd tinker with it but maybe with the
power cutting out, perhaps it is leading me into the right direction. The
Pro-2004 is my favorite scanner of all time, I'm somewhat bummed, at least I
have a Pro-43 and Bearcat BC-210 so I'm not totally in the lurch. I also
have Bearcat BC-101 I need to tinker with too, for some reason it doesn't
receive, the computer logic circuits seem fine though, if that went bad, I
know I'd be SOL there, the scanner was made in 1974. B-)

Hi all, I have a Pro-2004 and when I program a frequency, say 460.050

for
our local police, I get 460.0516 on the display. Also, if I punch in
45.000, I get something like 76.5295. I know there were some Pro-2004's
with bad solder joints but the problem only came up recently. Can I

have
a
bad RAM chip? Has anyone else ever expeienced this as well?
