Did this unit ever get released by Radio Shack?

It looks like a 2000-channel version of the PRO-528.

Very Good Question...

If the Radio Shack website is any indicator...NO. I also went into a couple 'Shacks' and they looked it up on their POS. Nothing. Also, a couple near misses where they asked, "Do you mean?...." and "Take a look at the ones we have over here...." but not what I wanted. Looks like this may be a great rig and I have kept an eye open...even joined the Yahoo group dedicated to that scanner but, nothing yet. I hope it wasn't an idea that got scrapped.

Probably opted out for the Pro-164 GRE model. I wish they would come out with a 2K channel radio that is affordable.

Anything is possible. I think this offering is made by Uniden and has status bits too. I guess it got FCC approved and maybe radio Shack decided.."That's OK". Unless they decide to offer it later this year....near the Fall season.
