I purchased one of these too. My local are is all APCO Project 25 II encrypted for police, fire, EMS, and Sherriffs Office, so the 52 channels really isn't much of a problem for me. But I can definitely see how it could be very annoying to someone in an analog environment or who travels a lot. I have done a lot of research on this radio online and have found hardly anything. Something that has really annoyed me too with this radio was the lack of manual DTMF, which can be handy to have sometimes. Best of luck on your quest, -Cashanova
