Default Looking for Win97 for Pro97 Handheld

I would like to purchase the Win97 for the Pro97 Handheld scanner if anyone here still has it but doesn't use it / need it anymore.

I have a Pro97 and a Pro92.

My Pro97 has the 1000 Channels and I would like to use the keyboard instead of the keypad on the scanner when programming it.

I already have Win92 for the RS Pro-92 scanner. It's okay sometimes.

The 1000 channels helps when it comes to programming the Railroad channels for both Norfolk-Southern and CSX in Central Virginia and surroundings

Again, I am looking to purchase a copy of the Win97 for the Pro97 scanner.

I would like to get a scanner that has the capability for rebanding of the spectrum.

Thanks

73s

I've been using their products for years on 3 different products and am very satisfied.
Very few bugs found and free updates if you keep your key handy.

I think that Win500 is the best to use for Radio Shack Pro scanners. I will second that you must print,and save your "Key" do not misplace it or you need to purchase a second one. I have used the program for years and have installed it on 5 different windows machines that I have owned, there is a learning curve with this and all programming just hang in there and ask questions and give us lots of info and you will be programming like a pro.

The PRO 97 doesn't support a Motorola 800 Mhz rebanded system.

It all depends on the frequencies. Some rebanded systems can be monitored 100% by the PRO-97 and all other older scanners.
