    Trunking Programs

    Are there any other programs for monitoring trunked systems? Our system is Bell Fleetnet 3600 baud. I use Trunk88 and Unitrunker but was curious if there were any more programs out there that I could try.

    Bearcat BC72XLT or GRE PSR-100

    Hey, I am trying to decide between a PSR-100 or a Bear BC72XLT. I have heard mixed reviews of the BC72XLT. I am starting into and I only need a basic scanner. The local frequencies aren't trunking. There isn't any 700 or 800 mhz frequencies. I am only looking to spend about $150 on one.
