I am now experiencing the first "broken" scanner in my station in over 20 years of scanning.
My PRO-97 acts as though it has no squelch on any frequency in the 154-156 MHz range. It locks up on any channel in that freq range and blasts static from the speaker irrespective of squelch dial setting or whether or not a CTCSS tone or DCS code is programmed.
I'll be taking it to the Shack and having it sent for service. I'm posting here to see whether anyone else has had this problem, and to advise PRO-97 owners of a possible future issue. This is not a brand new scanner. I've had it for less than a year, but it's out of warranty.
