\n
\n wow, crazy, I just upgraded from my Pro-92 to a 97, the Radio is
\n awesome, but RadioShack as usual, no help, I have been to 3 of my
\n local shacks, first one said they cannot program my scanner cause no
\n one knows how, I ask him if he had the cable, he said no, I ask if he
\n can he order them, nope... sigh, next one, can you program?, yes, but
\n its not working, she needs to call all these numbers and have this
\n process that takes 2 hours to re-configure the software to work with
\n the 97 and then they have to wait for another call, that they cannot
\n call, but must wait to be called and so on... ok, do you have the
\n Cable? nope, can you order one? nope, its been discontinued,...
\n alright last one, go in, do you have the cable? no, BUT they can order
\n them, so now I will wait a week, I asked if they could program my 97,
\n they said no, it was discontinued and they have no way to program it
\n cause it is not on their software.
\n
\n also all the stores I asked if they could check if other stores had
\n the item, only one shack said they could, they told me none have them
\n in stock, but now looking online, I have 3 locations that show them
\n instock, I'm pondering calling to confirm then if so, just cancel my
\n other order and drive out to pick up the cable.
\n
\n Anyone else go through this?
