hi guys. i bet you've seen that thread title about a million times... i just started reading on this site again a week or so ago since i plan on buying another digital scanner with tax money this year. I'd planned on going with the psr 500 since ive had a couple in the past that have served me greatly.
Then i get on here and read about the new psr 800. The 1 thing that has me considering it is its improved ability on digital simulcast systems. Since thats exactly what i listen to, and i remember the 500 being good, but not perfect on it, im having trouble making up my mind.
I understand you cant program the 800 by hand, which is ok. But what im wondering is when programmed by computer, can you program in your own custom lists of frequencies, (like banks) then scroll through them and turn them on and off at your pleasure? or something similiar to that?
