When I researched scanners, reviews on RadioReference were very positive about GREAmerica and the PSR800 scanner. My scanner quit receiving a week ago, only 18 days after purchase and I posted and received a ticket number from GREAmerica for the following:
"Scanner shows scanning, haven't heard anything in two days. Previously, local prison, fire, pd and sheriff very busy on radio, nothing now. Could pick up 40 miles away, now nothing, no sound whatsoever, even though scanning. Will not scan on Spectrum either. If you select all bands on Spectrum Sweeper, it stays on one channel. Previously Spectrum Sweeper worked fine. Tried clearing memory and downloading configuration, still just scans, no sound, no tranmissions. Received scanner January 15, 2013. Please help."
It is now a week later and I have yet to hear from GREAmerica. I guess the positive post for GREAmerica and their customer service must have come from their own staff, because my experience hasn't been very good.
