a look around the web about that radio , shows nothing of it being
able to change modes or bandwidths. actually , many articles
mention how simple the radio is with NO controls other than frequency
, scanning and FM stereo indicator.
for this radio to be useful in airband or other services ( PMR etc )
it would have to be able to detect NBFM or AM and be able to
have the I.F. bandwidth changed from the WBFM necessary for
receiving commercial stereo FM broadcasts.
current information and software available suggests that the ebay
sale you mention should be VERY suspect. there is NO
information on the web or from the maker that suggests that the radio
is capable of detecting different kinds of modulation schemes or
altering the radio's bandwidth. ( making it useful ONLY for stereo FM
broadcasts )
I'd hang on to my money for a while and see what happens first.( also
notice that this ebay seller only has a feedback rating of " 2 " )

I was just browsing through e-bay when i came across a seller trying to sell
the DRU-R100 USB radio with special software which would make it pick up
Airband,PMR etc !. Now, bearing in mind that the USB radio is 88-108MHZ, how
can the software take it out of that range ??
I have one of these USB radios, so what is the software called ?
