I havent had much luck on amateur radio forums so ill ask the question
here, Im looking for
a receiver with good sensitivity on 800 - 1000mhz or there abouts, im
using a Icom 706 that
covers 500mhx down to 100khz & need something to fill the gap, right
now im using a pro
2006 scanner but i would like something with manual control of
frequencys.

For very good quality receivers with manual tuning try an Icom 7100 or
an AOR AR-3000A. Difficult but not impossible to find on the used
market.

There is nothing I'm aware of new that allows manual tuning and
includes full frequency coverage.

I like my IC 7100 too. Switching out different receivers on the same
outdoor antenna, the 7100 receives best of all I own.

For just ham band stuff, My ts-790 tribander does better I think. There is
a mod and a location for an extra connector on the 790 to allow it to
receive 800 mHz.
