the nrd-545g is the european version of the nrd-545.
its rom is not cell blocked, when the vhf/uhf convertor card is installed
you can tune cell freqs. most people think the uhf/vhf card is what is
blocked, that is not the case with this radio. it can only be sold to
governmental agenices and to export addresses outside of the usa.

I was looking on Grove's website today and I happened to stumble upon a
JRC
NRD-545G for $2,195.

http://www.grove-ent.com/jrcprofreceivers.html

Could this be a new version of this receiver? Universal still lists this
unit at $1,799 without mention of the 545(G) designation. Also, the Grove
website states in a very Moses-like fashion that, "Thus, the
new-generation
NRD-545 receiver has come into the world."
