If I'm shelling out $500.00, LTR sure would be nice...............Along with
WFM and better band coverage.

It definitely does; Continuous Tone Controlled Selective Squelch (CTCSS)
and
Digital Coded Squelch (DCS) decoding. LTR, apparently it does not do, but
then do you need it?

Thank you sir! I went to their website and looked at the specs., I
noticed
it doesn't do PL/DPL or if it does, it's not listed. I doesn't do WFM,
and
it doesn't do LTR.
So maybe I'll take my chances with the 296D. If there's a problem I'll
send
it back...........

Thanks to all................

Yes, the PRO-96 does 9600.

Thanks for all the info. Although I've found Uniden service to be
fairly
good. I sent one of my 780's back a month ago and the turn around
time
was
great and unit works better than when I first bought it.
So does the Pro-96 do 9600bps? Thats the most important question at
the
moment.

I've owned both, and I definately prefer GRE's PRO-96! God help
you,
should
you ever have problems with a Uniden, and go to them for any kind of
service!

Uniden... Service? We don't give no stink'in service!

I'm in the market for a digital scanner and I'm very loyal to
Uniden/Bearcat
for a lot of reasons. I need one that does 9600bps for our local
system,
but
I'm told the Bearcats need some kind of tuning for them to operate
properly
on the APCO25 systems. Can someone fill me in on this?
I'm not a big fan of Radio Shack scanners, I've had a few
and
they
don't impress me at all. My last one was a Pro-91, what a piece of
garbage.
Rx was horrible, programming was a different story. They make the
programming so complex, for something very simple.
I've recently been told the Pro-96 is a better scanner than the
296D,
so
is
this just a personal opinion, or is it actually true.
Any information would be appreciated.

thnx
