I have a GRE PSR-600 used on my desk top, and it works great in my area. I use it with a MON-3 Par Electronics VHF/UHF/800 Mhz antenna with 50 feet of LMR-400 coax.
I also have a BCD996T that I don't use much any more because I like the 600 much better. The 600 scans very fast and picks up more than the 996.
I also had a BCD396T that I sold last month.
You will be happy with a 600, but it does have a learning curve like the 396 and 996.
