I just never looked into these radios until now. Maybe only with third party software, on which Icom is now relying entirely. So are you saying that there is software out there for trunking? I have both PCR1000 and WR1550e, and the Icom has been collecting dust since I acquired the WinRadio - much better. Then you should sell me the Icom for cheap :) Say $200 David I guess your no answer means that you dont want to take me up on my offer. I do actually. :-) Your post did remind me that I planned to get rid of it. I no longer use it. But I think I'd prefer to do it via eBay. I am going away for a few days and will do it upon my return.

: I've got an Icom PCR1000 running under Windows XP Pro and it works flawlessly! I used the same software under Win95 & 98 with no problems at all. I also have trunking, using TrunkPCR software working flawlessly on the same XP machine. I've tried other software programs and always ended up going back to the icom software. With the DSP module installed and a discone antenna the Icom is hard to beat. Same experience here for the most part. Same os etc. etc. I was intersted in your comment about the UT-106. For the most aprt any info I couild find about it indicated it was a waste of money in the PCR-1000. I would apprecite comments pro and con about this device as I have not purchaed one based on all the negative comment I have found regarding it. -- Panzer |

If you prefer BC-listening on shortwave this thing is real nice for its multi-tone automatic notch and a steal for its price compared to DSP based filters having this feature. The noice cancelling function was not very impressive IMHO. Sadly it lacks of peak, doublepeak and passband filtering for digital modes. Take your choice. PS: no need for x-post, f'up set. |
Howdy Panzer, the UT-106 is worth every cent. I was reluctant and waited
before buying one. But now I'm really glad I did. I wouldn't live w/o it now. It makes listening a real pleasure and much less of chore. It makes your noise level completely adjustable and really does work. Before I bought one, I looked into other dsp software options etc, & noticed that all the bad I had heard was from someone trying to sell me something else. You won't regret buying the UT-106.

In article ,
says... Hello George, Could you tell us a bit about how you found the Dayton Hamvention this year? Was it worth going? I'll tell you it was a waste of my time. Rained all freaking day long and most of the outside vendors were closed. I walked around inside for a little bit, picked up an R5 and left. One thing I can never understand about hamfests is the smell of some of the people. Do these smelly guys spend all there money on radios and cant afford soap? -- ----------- Dwayne http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BC895/ |
