[Scan-DC] Need scanner suggestion

[Doug Kitchener]

The newest one I have is the Radio Shack PRO-197 - have been delighted with the performance and it's a good value when on sale.  But I think some of the newer radios mentioned by the guys who have already answered are probably quite a lot more user-friendly!  So, if that's at the top of the list, I'd be tempted on the Uniden HomePatrol too from what folks are saying... Dave Schoenberger just got one, I imagine he'll be weighing in on this discussion soon.  http://www.bearcatoutlet.com/ seems to have a really good price on it too...  Let us know how this works out, Ed.

Regards to all,

Doug
