I am considering buying a Pro-95. Is there a better trunking scanner for the
money? What do you like? Thanks!

What is a trunked system ?

A radio system that uses a digital control channel to assign frequencies
to users of that system to better mange and use the spectrum.

Multi frequency system that is computer controlled. "Channels" are not
used. Instead, computer-assigned, "talkgroups" are used. Communications
traffic on one talkgroup can be assigned different frequencies on a first-
come first-served, basis.

A conventional scanner cannot follow a specific conversation, due to this
system. A trunking capable scanner can follow this traffic easily. A more
advanced trunking scanner, like the pro-92, 93, 95, and 96 can also allow
you to put alphanumeric "tags" on talkgroups, thus allowing you to identify
them at a glance.
