I just bought one off of Fleabay for 75.00. I recently sold a Gre PSR 310, great scanner BUT Not that hot on aircraft bands that was my little B*tch...

The Pro 137 is a hot little scanner, I don't need trunking I really do not use the scanner too much.

I'm more of a SW guy but it is nice to have the scanner.

Anyone have a 137, your thoughts about the pro 137..?

i got the pro-137 when they were on clearance. great little scanner for the price. the sensitivity is excellent. i don't use it much though, because i'm spoiled by ctcss/dcs.

Hi,

This is a hot conventional scanner that I programmed with ARC software. Where the NASCAR car numbers would be listed, I simply used my local agency channel numbers in place of.

This is made by Uniden and is a very well made scanner if you don't need digital or trunking features.

Very pleased with the quality and excellent reception that is hard to beat.
