PRO-96 CQPSK Development Update
Posted on 01/04/2004 16:57 EST

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Our thanks to the members of the GRE Development team working on the
PRO-96 for passing along the following:
We would like to take a moment and inform your readers about our
current efforts to create a CQPSK update for the PRO-96.
A CQPSK update is being worked on. Efforts began in October and are
ongoing. Several beta versions have been developed and tested. It has
proven to be more difficult than anticipated. This is mostly due to
the complexities of performing instant Automatic Intelligent Digital
Tracking, a unique PRO-96 feature that eliminates the need to
manually set the digital decoder for the different types of digital
systems in the field. We still believe there is a good chance that we
will be successful.

While we feel confident that we will be successful, you should all be
aware that there is a possibility we may not be able to field a
version that is good enough to meet the needs and expectations of end
users. Please keep in mind that the PRO-96 was designed to work with
C4FM digital modulation. It was not specified or designed to work
with CQPSK systems.

We are glad to see that so many of you are enjoying your PRO-96
digital scanners and we appreciate your patience and understanding.

The GRE Digital Scanner Development Team
