I'd be interested to know this as well.

I'll be watching this thread.

I've had 5 minutes hands on at APCO and it is nice, the display is excellent. Obviously only worth it if you are going to fully integrate your lights, etc. It doesn't have to go into a dash you can mount it on a stalk.

I have an APX7500 UHFR1/7/800 with an O9 head sitting in a box waiting to be installed. I'll post a pic or two and feedback once it is in and working. It will be fully controlling radio, lights, siren, gun lock, PA, etc.

I have run a APX7500 110w VHF / 700-800 with O9 and Motorola siren and lights controlled with the Motorola URC connected to the APX for about a year now in a 2011 Tahoe SSV.

Biggest thing the setup is missing is park kill for the siren.

LOVE IT. Works greats. Very easy to wire and set up. Take the time and set it up right and work through the programming and button and switch layout of the head with the user, and it will pay off. Tons of options.

Even better now that I am running Firmware 7 and have the 0-9 keys able to be used as quick set direct channel access buttons.

Can you provide some pics of the setup and user interface? I'll be looking at installing in a Suburban or Tahoe; as we are about to get a new operations vehicle to replace one...
