Need a great scanner? GRE America joins with Wiscomm

The best announcement of the week has to be the news that GRE America has joined with Wiscomm to offer the best scanners available on the market today. GRE America has been a manufacturer of scanners for Radio Shack for 40 years and continue to do so, a few years ago they rolled out the very successful PSR series of scanners.

They feature two flagship products, the first being the PSR-600 Mobile / Base Scanner that will scan just about every radio system on the market including P25 Digital systems. Excellent build quality, excellent receiver and loud audio make this unit the perfect companion to your public safety monitoring post.

The second product is the newest addition to the GRE family, the PSR-800 portable scanner provides the Complete USA and Canada Database On a MicroSD Card and incredibly easy to use controls that the most entry level user can program and use. Much like the PSR-600 this scanner covers most every type and size system in the US.

We will be carrying the entire line of GRE scanners starting at $89, we have scoured the competition and feel we have some of the most competitive pricing around. See the difference GRE Scanners offer!

Wiscomm partners with EM Wave Inc to provide unique antenna solutions.


Wiscomm is happy to partner with EM Wave Inc, a provider of engineered antenna solutions for Land Mobile radios. E/M Wave, Inc. is pleased to announce the release of its e/m-Flex™ Elastomeric Polymer Spring Line of VHF / UHF Mobile Antennas. New e/m-Flex™ Polymer Springs are low profile, durable, and engineered for robust mechanical flexibility, while providing high conductivity for reliable electrical performance. The resilient Poly Springs dampen typical duplex system noise that is often generated by conventional mechanically wound wire coil springs operating in the LMR VHF/UHF frequency bands.

E/M Wave's second unique product is the EM-MX Series antennas.  This distinct antenna series was designed with application versatility in mind; for VHF-UHF, Public Safety and even Cellular application if our Customer so desires. Elegantly designed and unobtrusive, the EM-MX Series antennas sport a small footprint for practical mounting on just about any surface local. Available in six different mechanical configurations featuring frequency coverage between 152-960 MHz. The whip is constructed of 300 Series Stainless Steel featuring elegant Black Chrome Plating for added conductivity and durability. Top this off with a Stylish high-impact, Dual Shot Xenoy™/TPV base, Dual Seal tenants for weatherproofing and 100 watts forward power handling and you have a friend on the road when ever and where ever you go mobile. And, don't forget this antenna provides for up to 10% more operational bandwidth than most other competing low-end Chrome Nut designs.

The mobile antenna market is a very competitive arena, we choose to work with E/M Wave based on their extensive engineering background and small company customer service. We will be adding local inventory to the Wiscomm warehouse in the coming weeks and look forward to expanding the reach of this great company. Check out all the E/M Wave antennas in our dedicated online store.
