Buy a Pro-96 for digital scanning. It's available and it works great. And
none have had the letters and numbers wear off like the brand new BCD396.


Or have ever opened on a fire tone-out. Or have free software to
program them. Or can be remotely read or controlled. And still costs
as much as (or a little more than, depending on where you shop) the
BCD396T.

And, if any of the firmware (any - CPU, DSP, anything) needs a fix, no
matter how minor, the scanner has to be shipped back to Radio Shack -
at your expense.

And Uniden maintains a presence on the Yahoo groups and the fora -
Radio Shack and, more importantly, GRE, is nowhere to be seen. You
want something changed? Write it down and burn the paper - maybe the
gods will be kind. Uniden doesn't just listen to us - they
participate in discussions, and modify the firmware due to users'
suggestions and desires - as witness the fire tone-out mod in the
latest firmware.

So, Al, tell us - when's the last time you were perfect? You still
haven't answered that one.
