Absolutely not true my friend. It was an engineering issue that they quote
"tried to fix in the 3000/9000 scanners after they pulled the 2500/8500
scanner following the horrible reviews." They still didn't fix the issues in
the 3000/9000 models even thought they said they did. A great comparable set
of triple conversion scanners of that era were the RS (GRE) Pro-2004/5/6
desk/mobiles and Pro-43 HH which didn't need traps to block the cell images
from 800 MHz. I still own all four, they are still working fine and doing
the job.
Sorry DH, I won't own a 2500/8500/3000/9000 today even if you gave to me.
IMHO a total waste of energy to power compared to other triple conversions
of that day.
