I am sending the information again by Netmail at the same time I am sending this note to you in the ScanRadio conference.. I have read that the owners manual that comes standard does not explain all that the AOR 1000 radio can do. The Manual I will be sending does explain the AOR 1000 radio. //jg// * SLMR 2.1a * Clearance sale - All tag lines must go! --- GEcho 1.20/Pro * Origin: The CatWalk BBS Davie, Fl 305-370-3528 USR V.EveryThing (1:369/8) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 154 SCANNERS Ref: DCH00009 Date: 08/11/96 From: BOBBIE BEERS Time: 11:28pm \/To: ROGER CRAVENS (Read 13 times) Subj: Test Message -=> Quoting Roger Cravens to All <=- RC> Planning on switching Fido providers from the Washington, DC RC> area to the Atlanta, GA area.

This works quite well serving as the main power supply and then will automatically switch over to battery when needed. Check with some local security dealers to see what the have taken in on trade. Just make sure the power supply and charging circuits are in working order. Dan --- Renegade v10-05 Exp * Origin: Westcon BBS - Walker, Mi. (616)453-4805 (1:228/99) Yo!
