There's been several messages lately about being new and having a WS1040, 1065, PRO-651....these are all clones of the original PSR-500 and 600. Often newcomers seem to get the radio and have no idea how to proceed.

Our wiki has a number of getting started articles, and this is the one that's relevant...

Getting Started with your GRE/RS Object Oriented Scanner - The RadioReference Wiki

A couple of things to keep in mind;

a. These radios can only handle Project Phase 1 digital - they are unable to be upgraded for Phase 2, DMR, MOTOTRBO, NXDN or ProVoice
b. From all report, these radios generally don't handle simulcast very well

Newcomers with these radios that want to get started should be pointed here....Mike
