Butch, I am talking with a product developer at Whistler, the company that
bought the PSR-500 and other scanners from GRE America that went out of
business several years ago. The guy seems interested in possibly providing
some beeps and a key structure that will makd future models of their
scanners accessible. As of yet, this is all very speculative, Jim WA6EKS

recall the number or model, but I saw one at rat shack a year or so ago
and the whole thing was touch screen, even volume, not a knob in sight.
