Hello all!

I received a PRO-96 under the tree this year and although I'm happy with all the features it contains I have one concern.
Today I took it on a drive and using the optional 800 Mhz whip I bought for my PRO-93 received A LOT of interference from cell towers!
Now I have a PR0-2067 mounted in all three of my cars and have both a PRO-93 and a PRO-95 and I get interference from some cell towers but it seems that I get more from the PRO-96. I even unplugged the antenna off of my 2067 and hooked up to the one on my truck to the PRO-96 and it helped a little but there is a small one near my home the doesn't interfear with any of my scanners but the 96!

My truck antenna: Maxrad 800 with Antennex low-loss cable.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Well it sounds as if you are overloading the radio. Go back to the rubber duck that came with the radio and see if that doesn't solve the problem.
