scanlist
Scanning since the 70's to today.
FYI. VHF (150/160) narrow band channel spacing is 7.5 KHz. UHF (400/500/700/800) is 6.25 KHz.

scanernutt said:Why? My pro-84 which is as bare bones as a scanner gets, does round them off.
when I put in 151.0775 it rounds it off to 151.080. So if you are telling me that this new radio does not even accept them, then there is a problem.

You had me worried for a minute there. Anyway, so how do you find the sensitivity? Do you get a lot of intermod where you are at? Birdies? ect....

My PSR-300, which should be identical in operation and functionality to the PRO-164, lets me enter 139.8750 and change the mode to AM. I tried it in both "Tune" mode and programming a new channel.scanernutt said:From what I see on the manual, you CANNOT change modes. The pro-164 will not let you either. However, the 164 does supprt 7.5 khz tunning steps in the 136-174 Mhz. area.
This model is a Uniden.CStarr59 said:Who "specs" the radio, RS or Uniden?
Oh I am dumb. I read it as a Uniden or GRE question.CStarr59 said:I understand it a uniden, but is it built to RS specs? Did RS customize the specs to their liking before Uniden built it for them.
To which radio are you referring? If the PSR-300, it's the same as the PRO-164 - just different packaging (and they won't clone to each other). The PSR-300/PRO-164 are, essentially, the PRO-97 "updated" a little.letarotor said:DonS wrote: "My PSR-300, which should be identical in operation and functionality to the PRO-164, lets me enter 139.8750 and change the mode to AM.

Just tried this on my PRO-164, it'll do it.
I am amazed that they added the alpha text tags and CTCSS and DCS tones to this unit. Somebody at Rat Shack must have been listening. Will it do CTCSS/DCS tone decoding like the 164? And why did they move the light key to the otherside, seems like an expensive engineering change to me?
