I got the software from GREAmerica site ver. 1.08
Here's the fix. It's from a Whistler rep. regarding the GRE library updates:
The GRE and RadioShack apps are not supported however you can obtain an updated library using the Whistler Handheld PC app then transfer the DB files to your non supported pc app.
From the Whistler WS1080 PC App, run a library update.
Then go to your My Document > Whistler 1080 Digital > DB and copy the contents of this folder.
Replace the files in your GRE or Pro668 Digital DB folder with the files copied from the Whistler 1080 digital DB folder. Launch your GRE or RadioShack pc app and you will have the latest Library.
Keep in mind that the WS1080 library contains DMR systems however your GRE or RadioShack models do not support these objects. Details for an official DMR Upgrade program is available at whistlergroup.com/products/upgrade

Another solution is to send your PSR-800 to Whistler for the Legacy Upgrade. Your scanner will be converted to a WS1080. You can then use the WS1080/WS1088 EZ Scan software directly for library updates. The upgrade adds DMR to your scanner. You will also be able to do firmware updates. There have been many reports of improved performance after the upgrade.

To my knowledge, there is no version of PSREdit that supports the PSR-800. There isn't a version on the link you posted. Is there a version that can be used to download the library directly to the PSR-800?

That's OK! I get into trouble every time I think.Sorry, I thought it did.
Good morning,
I am sorry for butting in here but, to those who have sent their PSR800 to Whistler, is it worth it, and does it really take as long as they say to get it back?
Thank you, and 73's
