As far as the data cable https://www.greamerica.com/shop/cgi-...od&ref=100-025

The M-75 Pre Amplifier, is designed to amplify radio signals without having to use an antenna that does the same. It is connected between the antenna and the receiver, and based on the price you gave, it sounds like a good quality preamp.

Does it look like this?
Jim M75 Pre-Amplifier

If so read the description. It amplifies weak signals and it's gain is adjustable as is it's band.

You can use any USB to USB-mini cable to power the 800. Right now I am using the cord from my eReader to power mine and in the truck is the cable for my MP3 player.

Hello,
Yes that is it I see they are selling for 199.00. @ scanner master

As Sportster mentioned, it's a standard mini-USB cable. The cable can be used for data/programming as well as charging/power (if you have rechargeable AA batteries in it). I just bought a spare from Monoprice--very inexpensive but reputable USA company. Check this link -- any of the cables listed under "USB 2.0 Cables - Mini-B 5pin Type" will work, though the ones with Ferrite cores will reduce interference.

As for programming, have you downloaded GRE's EZ Scan Software? It's really a breeze to program with, and there's a good deal of documentation as well. Feel free to PM me if you have any trouble.
