Hi Jim, I remember that scanner, it was a hot receiver, as I recall!  I
also had a Barecat 101, or 100, that used the same idea, but was
programmed with the 16 channel lock-out switches on the front, and had
one of the hottest receivers I have ever seen in a scanner!  I used to
know the formula to convert the frequency to that binary number, so I
could make the scanner go to frequencies that weren't listed in the book!
