RadioShack PRO-2055
Moderator: Global Moderator Team
I have two of em mainly for the signal stalker or whatever you call it.
I hate the squelch. There's not padding there at all. They go in to a wild squelch flutter attack at the edge of a signal fade and the overall RX sensitivity doesn't seem that hot to me. But, for the $$ and features they are still pretty decent.
What blows my mind is the PSR500. That damn thing is the closest to a commercial rig that I've found so far. I tested it against the MR-K on an 800 Edacs system. There was barely an audible difference between the two on a barely receivable system 50 miles away. None of the other radios in the house knew it was there. I can't wait to grab one of the 600 base units.

This thread does not make sense. Were some posts removed?

They won't stretch that far, but since you're here it'll be taken care of.

I think you have me mixed up with someone else.

Re: RadioShack PRO-2055
I thought you would have one around for a back up plan.

We know why the Mong likes the midgets, Mong meat is just big enough for a midget.

Nope, it's big enough for a big gal, but meant for a midget.....
