You look up your city/county, state, or system type and choose what frequencies you want in your scan lists and what list you want them in. Adding frequencies or systems couldn't be easier. It's not, but don't get all exasperated because you have to learn that play = scan.Ĥ. Reading some of the comments here, it seems like the interface on the radio and computer just looks "odd" to some, meaning it's just too hard to use. If you've ever used Excel for simple things like adding up columns of figures, the software is no more difficult. If you have any other rigs with computer control, this is no more difficult. You can do a lot of things with it, like setting tweaks, add frequencies not in the database, edit text tags, and rearrange your scan lists, but none of this is mandatory to use the radio. You only need it to update the frequency database from RadioReference. The included computer interface works very well. BTW, I'm 69 years old, so I'm not some young guy who's had an iPod all my life.ģ. Maybe some hams are still only using slide rule dial analog rigs, but this is not a difficult thing to master. It's much easier than most modern ham radios, for example, which usually have four or five deep nested menus. The menu system takes about 15 minutes of study with the manual to understand well enough to use for most people. I only hear an occasional breakthrough from that tower, which is better than the 600.Ģ. I live in a fairly small town, but I also have a cell/public safety tower about 300 yards from the shack. ![]() I've had it connected to a Scantenna mounted on a 40 foot mast and haven't heard any intermod. I've compared the 107 to a GRE PSR-600 digital scanner and the 107 has a bit better sensitivity on 800 MHz and about equal on VHF/UHF. Excellent sensitivity with a good antenna (see Cons). I got my refurb 107 from Amazon last February for the amazing price of $61.22 delivered! After reading some of the reviews here, I was prepared for "problems". Note that any audio recorded with these products cannot be played back by a standard. ![]() The following packages support the Pro-92, 93, 95. The status of the author/owner (Don Starr) is unknown
