Agree the 96 is way overkill if you don't need P25 digital tracking.
Unfortunately in my area most of the systems have gone digital. The
analogue systems sound a lot better and I can listen to them with the T90
but the only analogue systems left in our area are Andrews AirForceBase and
Arlington county.

In my case, the pro96 cost a lot more then I needed to pay. Here in the San
Francisco bay area, only one agency is using digital. With the pro97, I can
hear everything I want to hear. It was only $150.00. I bought some nnimh
batteries for it. I now do a lot of listening.
I take it, you are talking about win96 by Starsoft. I've used win97 and
parts of it are not useable.
