DOE Convoy Comms & Re: [FedCom] Transporter Picture

The pro-96 sounds quite good on astro. Those who own moto radios say the 
  pro-96 sounds better then their radio.

I believe the Pro-97 is an Uniden OEM.

Signal Stalker = Close call????

I don't have a radio with close call, but saw one in action. The 
"target" no longer had their frequencies in the FCC database, though 
with a great deal of work I found their FCC application. The guy with 
Close Call didn't need to go through such effort as he found every 
frequency I had while on scene.

I see the Pro-97 is on sale at the moment for $180. Even less than the 
BC246 mail order.
