also?? Curious to find out....

Uh, I hear the Michigan State Police just fine using the PRO-96. It
decodes the digital signal flawlessly. As far as the DNR goes, it
uses the same APCO-25 trunking system as the Michigan State Police,
so, I would assume that I can hear it (although there don't seem to be
any DNR transmissions in the Detroit Metro area.

Glad to hear that, and if you chat with anyone actually recieving the DNR
communications as well, PLEASE let me know.
It will make the difference of whether or not I am gonna get one of the
PRO-96's.

Thanks,
