So I have a TRX-2 and it would be the perfect scanner IF it did not have such a squelch tail after the audio ends.
A friend just got a used 1065 and it has an expert setting menu that lets me totally eliminate the squelch tail and the scanner sounds GREAT

If it helps poster, this issue is known, the TRX-2 radios are based on a rebranded radio the PSR-900, developed around 2011, made by GRE which went out of business and was never able to publicly introduce the radio and sold their line to Whistler who expanded on that radio by making improvements like an improved keyboard.

I would concur that there would be no changes made to the TRX series.

TB, could you mean the PSR-800?? ;) The PSR-900 was the pipe dreams of RR posters.

Nope, they had PSR 900 in the hands of beta testers. They are actually out there and a few years ago there was a poster who was asking about updates for it as he still had his. It was never distributed to the public but they had it for quite a while.

We waited for that radio for over a year and I bought one of the first ones from Whistler which was the 1095. Always should have had a keyboard. I think Don Starr was working with them at that time and helped with the keyboard. There are insiders who know more about this. But there definitely was a PSR 900.

I remember calling Whistler about installing the driver as I had one of the first 1095 radios. I spoke with a nice woman who said they were just learning about the radios themselves as they were sight unseen LOL.

The PSR-900 was legit and became the WS1095 after GRE went out of business and Whistler brought it to market. You're thinking of the TRX-100 and TRX-200, which were supposed to be simulcast-capable designs that Whistler announced then abandoned a year later. Neither were "pipe dreams of RR posters", but were officially announced products from the manufacturer.
