I noticed that Upman avatar is showing September. Does anyone have an idea what September means ? A new scanner ? or an upgrade ?
Here's hoping Butel will program the new Whistler lineup. That's almost a dealbreaker for me

The Radio Shack badged versions of the newly released (so far) Whistler scanners are supported, I am just guessing that the Whistler units will be also.

Well it better be something because Whistler is coming out strong right now. They have their high tier scanners hitting the market and either Uniden goes into high gear or they will get left behind.
When that de-teachable face Phase II TDMA scanner comes out from Whistler hold onto your shorts scanner listeners.
They better have that Siren app figured out and a new scanner model hit the streets before Christmas or its over.

I only hope that Whistler fixes the front end problem on the yet to be FCC certified model(s) they will be releasing.
If not, that is a deal breaker for myself as I cannot use a GRE on VHF High.
All they need to do is add in some simple FM Broadcast band filtering and that would cure their known front end problems for the most part.
Anyone know if that area has been addressed at all with the rebadged GRE's they are now selling via various retailers?
I would think a change in that area may trigger a recertification with the FCC but that one should be very easy to get recertified on the existing GRE clones that are rumored to be available now.
All they would be doing is adding a few passive components to create a FM Broadcast band filter.
I wholeheartedly agree about the VHF problem, and don't forget the noisy volume knob issue. Both are practically deal breakers for me unless the sales price is low enough to make them easier to overlook.
I'd much prefer a new Uniden Phase 2 radio along the lines of the 996 (or 396), and that's what I'm hoping will be the September surprise.

Whistler is no where near a year behind Uniden's technology. What kind of dope have you been smoking?
Uniden's new flagship scanner was built upon lies to their customers right out of the gate. That's the worse thing you could ever do your fan base. Lie to them and promise features that almost a year later are still no available. Hardware issues right from the factory. I guess I can keep going.
Plus Whistler has made no promises and no lies their customers yet.
