My Pro-92, after working fine for months, suddenly went dead. Here is what happens. If I turn it on with the squelch wide open (say on weather search) I hear...
Pro-95 or Pro-97 If you want pl and dpl decode and or LTR trunking then go with the pro-97 The '97' also has "signal stalker" which is a cross between a...
you may not need digital today, but it IS coming soon. if you go pro 96 which does digital AND trunking, your set for a good long time. tk <qmp@...>...
Thanks for the replies (some day I still will be looking for a replacement) but I guess I posted too soon. I use ni-mh batteries in my 92. The battery light...

Hi, Search the archives, if you haven't already, for battery problems. I discussed how the PRO-92 connects the standard black 2-pronged case and the ...
stuart, Thanks for the info. I did a search and read up a little on the different battery cases. I bought my 92 on ebay and did not get a yellow case and...
... schematic pictures I can upload them (they may already be there, look for a file inside a zip called power.tif. It shows the battery and power hookup) ... ...
Bill, you are correct. The rechargeables will never charge in the black case. The + lead from the case gets opened when you plug in the charger. The yellow ...
Stwart, Apparently I really have a problem with my 92. After postint that everything was OK I found out that it will only work on any kind of batteries for a...
Hi, Have you checked the "springs" inside the radio, where the batteries case makes contact? They have a tendance to loose their pushing force by being...
... I already had that thought. In fact I took the whole thing apart thinking something would be obvious. When I put back together I bent and cleaned the...
HI, It sounds like you've checked the obvious. There may be a possibility. The power jack on the circuit board is notorious for breaking. I've been lucky,...
I forgot to mention, all readings were using the battery pack with 2000 ma ni-mh batteries bill ____________________________________________________ Yahoo!...
Stuart, OK, here is what I got. I have a cheap digital multi meter so readings are probably at least close!!?? When the 92 was turned on, with the squelch...
Partially shorted. Not Open circuit and not a dead short. In my experience, diodes usually fail open. Capacitors may fail open, or "dead short circuit". ...
Well, I guess I can say and fetch that the weather alert works pretty well on my 92. I've have it for a few years now, since they came out and this weekend was...
Bill, Those values don't sound unreasonable. I can't remember if you tried 6 alkalines to see how long they keep the rig running compared to the NiMh. Have...
It has the same problem using the RS Wallwart. Now I have to decide if I want to get it repaired, buy another 92 or just upgrade to something newer. Kind of a...
this is probably something you've already heard/tried, but... if you completely remove the battery pack and just run the scanner with the power adapter, does...
Yea, I did try them both and had the same results. I ended up sending it back to ratshack today. I figured for (estimated) $60 it is better that taking ...
My speaker is "scratchy" and seems to cut out at lower to mid volumes. I have to really mess with the knob to get it to the desired level. I'm moderately...
... try spraying out the volume pot (potentiometer, thingie under the knob) first. Odds are it's dirty, which can cause scratchiness and dropouts. RS now...
Odds are the volume control got a little funky. Some tuner cleaner will help but don't soak it. Also keep in mind that your speaker is made of paper. With age,...
