| − | Hello all, My wife purchased this for this past April for my birthday. I am a scanner nut... nut you ask... I have
| |
| − | a Pro 2006 that has had the blue back lite replaced twice because it's burned out from being on for years at a time.
| |
| − | We my wife and were first married it took a few weeks to use to a scanner because I ALWAYS have at least one on or one
| |
| − | of my ham radios is going. But anyway back to the PRO-93- in my judgement one of the best out there. I likethe ablity
| |
| − | using the WIN93 software I can program my radio in seconds once I have loaded the file. We go to Columbus IN to visit
| |
| − | my wifs family... I have a file that covers my trip set-up with the general area's wo take on the trip and once we are
| |
| − | there the truncking system they use is loaded and I am ready to listen. That is what I love about. If I get there nad
| |
| − | want to listen to my ham stuff I can dump a new file in and go. It's that easy. The performance is excellent, in Indiana
| |
| − | it's flat... but I still have a great RX range. Here in TN everyone Mountain Tops the their TX sites and you can
| |
| − | listen to 4 - 5 counties with no problem with PRO-93. I guess the ONLY negative I have is it only has 300 channel.
| |
| − | But hey nothings perfect. If you do have a PRO-93 and try use the Rack Shack software they will try to tell you works
| |
| − | with the PRO-93 you wasiting your time. If you e-mail me, I will send you a zipped copy of the WIN93 software. It is
| |
| − | share / freeware so please send the your money to the owner not me. 73 all.

| − | I purchased a Pro-93 in Septmeber of 2001 to replace my Pro-91 which I purchased in March of 2001. The reason I
| |
| − | purchased another scanner is because the pro-91 doesn't recieve very well but the Pro-93 is like a base scanner built
| |
| − | into a handheld. The Pro-93 is one of the best Radioshack scanners I have ever seen. It can track Motorola and EDACS
| |
| − | trunked systems. I only use the Trunk Tracking mode when I am in Evansville IN. I do recommend this scanner because its
| |
| − | worth the money I would have paid $300.00 but I paid $249.00.

| − | This is an addition to my previous post. I love the PRO-93 because it is loaded with features. It also has a decent
| |
| − | number of channels (300). I would have gotten a PRO-95 because of the 1000 Channel Capacity, but I bought my -93 as
| |
| − | soon as they came out. It is an awesome scanner! Has large frequency range (25-1300), preset search banks, provisions
| |
| − | for additional antennas (I use a telescoping antenna on mine), and AWESOME reception! The only negative thing that I
| |
| − | can think of is you can't manually select the trunking talkgroup to lock on, the scanner has to first scan it, then you
| |
| − | can hold TRUNK. That makes it difficult to select a fireground talkgroups for example. (You need to keep repeatedly
| |
| − | pressing SCAN until it stops on the talkgroup)
| |
| − | | |
| − | AWESOME SCANNER,

| − | I love my PEO-93! Bought it from Radioshack for 249.99. I agree with everyone else about how good it is. It has
| |
| − | awesome reception, even on very distant stations. U also get the 200MHz HAM band and 1000MHz HAM Band. It is so easy
| |
| − | to use and program too. Program up to 1000 talk group ID's....... just AWESOME!

| − | I picked up my Pro-93 scanner an CLEARANCE from Radio Shack for $59.99! Yep, Fifty Nine dollars and ninety nine cents
| |
| − | (plus tax.)
| |
| − | For the price you can't go wrong. I love the alpha tags, makes life so much easier. And with free programming software
| |
| − | available on the web, programming is a snap.
| |
| − | This is the best, and cheapest, scanner I've ever owned.
