For years we have been wanting one scanner that will do everything. Now lets take a simple look.
We have the newest generation of receivers that will do most of everything but there seems to be a problem/s in some areas with new models and the bells and whistles. One unit has something another is without.
Whenever a model is released, either some feature is included, or omitted by you.
Take the features of the GRE and the Uniden and put it all in one place, work out the system quirks also. Listen to the user reports in how effective a unit is. As Engineers, you may know or think there is a better way without listening to anyone else as you are designing, what im getting at is really read what the end results are and make them more effective. We know because we are using the units in variable enviroments for various systems and monitoring. We know what they do and how they are performing. Ensure the unit can and will be reflashed with banding or system following capability, and fully supported.
How about a unit which has the PR0 96 backlighting. How about a unit that transitions in Multi system-scans at the speed of Turboscan search without missing a beat. How about a hits function that was on the old BC-250 where you can leave the unit unattended and come back and see how many times a frequency was used while you were away?
How about a CTCSS decode as fast as the PRO models?
Get rid of the proprietary battery packs and transition everything to AA use period. Use one type of antenna connector for all of them. I know this is just the tip of the iceberg of the gripes after giving good money for a unit.
The hum dinger will be when Uniden and GRE join forces to develop the ultimate all under one roof. How about including a spectrum view as the AOR or Alinco??
Maybe everyone should get together and develop this, a joint effort. A representatuive from every company. I can say whoever puts all the most capable features in one unit shall be the winner and im beginning to think that it will only happen with a joint effort. I realize different companies, different perspectives, different ways at doing things, but how about the very best of all of it with all the brains working it??
I can write forever on details and system following capabilities, it's all been written here at this website with the results of all the models in use. Time to mould the most used and effective features in one place. Read the results of what the units are actually doing, the good and bad, get rid of the bad.
Can it be done for a $400-$500 unit price, yes it can especially with all that is already programmed in them.
Every possible system in use today, every possible system tool/feature, all of it.
My intuition is telling me that you are already listening to us and are in the process of doing something with this. If not, here is the cue. May be the hottest seller ever supported by the public users with a shared and equal profit distibution for all involved in development.
Just a idea before you embark on the next generation of receivers.
