I really don't know.  That's what I was asking the lady at Radio Shack 
and she didn't know anything about the Pro-96.  At this point, I'm just 
happy to be rid of an otherwise good receiver that would have been 
useless to me within a few weeks or months.  I've now gone back to my 
Bearcat which, for [1] NOAA weather and [2] Texas Highway Patrol, works 
just as well as the Pro-95.
