I suggest that you look at the box on an 895 and then go to the Bel website and look at the 955 and the 965 and you will see what I am talking about. I am fairly sure this is accurate, but if not I apologize for misleading.

Sorry I was wrong the BEL 895 is the same thing as the BEL 965 not the BEL 955...I will edit my posts thanks for picking out my mistake.

Actually I have a habit of doing lots of research on anything I am about to spend money on. I found this site about a month ago and traveled all over the forum and numerous links to research. I didn't realize my find about the 895/965 until a couple of days before I actually made the purchase. I have to say I feal like I almost stole the thing! I was going to post a message about this very find to spread the word. Happy to be able to return the favor and help someone else out after all the posts that have helped me.

I agree Rob.

I still looked over the manuals and they seem identical, even the same 3 city modes Std Lo and No X. I was mixed up earlier with the 795, as these two share the same alphanumeric text display. But I have not seen the actual retail box.

i thought the 895 didn't have autoscan...read the manual again, it sure does

OK I see now, on Bel web site (Are you reading this Beltronics? Listen up!) on their comparison chart the 955 does NOT show that it has Autoscan, BUT in the manual it says it does. Also the comparison chart says the 955 has 2 city modes BUT the manual says it has 3!!!

So there is misinformation, and now we are back to my original answer, the difference between the 955 and 895 is 60. And that is the only thing we now for sure.
