Watch for the Regency MX7000 (really an MX5000 with a built in converter) in January 1985. -- =============================================================================== Bob Parnass, Bell Telephone Laboratories - ihnp4!ihu1h!parnass - (312)979-5414

That bearcat scanner that can be hooked to an rs-232 port runs up to the 800 mhz bands. (I don't remember the model number, but get yerself a copy of "Consumer Electronics" catalog.....they have it in there).

This radio covered up to 512 MHz, not 800 MHz, as the receiver circuit board was the same one used in the Bearcat 350 (discontinued) and Bearcat 300. Several years ago, Bearcat introduced a crystal controlled scanner that covered 800 MHz (the only scanner to cover this range) but it flopped and was withdrawn. -- =============================================================================== Bob Parnass, Bell Telephone Laboratories - ihnp4!ihu1h!parnass - (312)979-5414
