Like I said when you posted this 3 days ago, might want to wait until
the pro-94 is no longer on sale for $119....

I have to agree, but I guess that the "full" coverage on 800 MHz may be an
attraction to some who like to listen to all of the 800 MHz band without
loosing that little bit which is blocked in current model scanners.

And if you find a store demo Pro-94 you may get them to knock off $20 like
my buddy did! no belt clip or box.

$99 for a 1000 ch trunking scanner? That's about right....

Thanks for the input, but I am selling a Pro-43, what does that have
to do with a trunking scanner?

My point was you had posted it a few times (because I'm guessing) no
responses. You are asking $130 for a 200 channel circa 1992 scanner,
when there's a brand new 1000 channel dual trunking scanner at Radio
Shack for $119.00. My suggestion was to wait a bit until the 94 goes
off sale.

Ed:
You are fighting a losing battle trying to convince most folks here, but I
understand. In fact I think you are undervaluing the Pro-43.
To those of us who appreciate the Pro43, it is blasphemy to compare it to
the Pro-94. You have to be a Mil Comms Monitor to understand. The Pro-94 does
not furnish the Mil UHF band (225-400), nor does it furnish the 138-144 range
in AM Mode. Both of those bands enable us Mil Comms Monitors to hear mil acft.
Both bands are wonderfully accommodated by the Pro-43, perhaps the most
sensitive scanner ever made in those ranges. Also the Pro-43 is excellent for
MilSatCom monitoring, even with a decent whip like the Radio Shack
center-loaded whip. That is exactly how I listened to MilSatComs today from a
Pro-43 I have hanging on my bookcase.
You will get double your asking price for the Pro-43 if you advertise it on
Email groups or Usenet groups where Mil Comms Monitors hang out. Here they
just consider it an old scanner.

Evan,
Point taken.
I was expecting more response due to the sort of "cult following" the
43 has had in the past. I realize that its not a fair comparison to
contrast the two as they are totally different.
Thanks for the discussion,
Ed
