While I'm no expert on the matter, I would have to say that there would
be
minimal, if any, difference between the two, as the technology was
developed
by Uniden. I'd guess the only real difference is the name, as a Radio
Shack
branded scanner can not use the same terminology due to copyright...

Signal Stalker = Close Call = Uniden (PRO-83, BC246T, BCD396T etc)
Signal Stalker II = GRE (PRO-97)

The Uniden version captures signals faster than the GRE version. However
the
GRE version picks up signals from a greater distance.


Ah, thanks for the clarification... I missed the 'II'...

Any idea what the approximate distance difference is with the SSII? I know
that I can pick up stronger signals from quite some distance on my PRO-83...
The local police repeater, which I believe operates at about 50-watts
(155.310MHz) trips the SS on my PRO-83 at up to just about 3-miles away
using a mobile mag mount scanner antenna from Radio Shack...
