Steve (or anyone)

Apologies for being so far behind the curve on digital but ...

Wondering how difficult it would be to manually program unit if one is only 
interested in a few stations. (in my case Fairfax Cnty Police)

Reason I asked,  feel like I just got a good price on a radio and am 
hesitant to jack up the $299 cost by ~ $70 for a USB cable and software.

What about just using Pro96com, so all I need is the cable?

If Detroit were turning out Pro106s, there'd be no problem up there....

Right now (noon Friday) there is precisely one of them for sale in the
Metro area.  That's at the Montgomery Mall Radio Shack.

According to Corie, who manages the Pike Plaza store (Rt. 7 west of
Tysons), the other closest Pro106s are in Charleston, WV, where there are
six.  Corie, who is very good, says he can get them into his store by
Tuesday, which would also be the last day of the sale.  I'd suspect he'd
want the money up front.

He also has two programming cables, which you will need, since no one in
his right mind would try to program this moose without assistance from a
computer.

I've just downloaded Win500 and I'm setting out to do that now.

Steve, N4TX
