This radio covered up to 512 MHz, not 800 MHz, as the receiver circuit board was the same one used in the Bearcat 350 (discontinued) and Bearcat 300. Several years ago, Bearcat introduced a crystal controlled scanner that covered 800 MHz (the only scanner to cover this range) but it flopped and was withdrawn. -- =============================================================================== Bob Parnass, Bell Telephone Laboratories - ihnp4!ihu1h!parnass - (312)979-5414
