[Scan-DC] Curious about the hobby

[Greg Danes]

After Alan's article I looked at the manufacturers selling scanners (Uniden
and Whistler) and noticed something. Uniden has so many more radios that
are up to Phase 2 P25 specs than anyone else. In my quest for possible
radio buys in the future I see many great makers of wide-band and such,
AOR, ICOM doing the P25 thing but its all phase 1. I guess you can only
squeeze so much into a box and hope the buyer is more interested in Air
comms and shortwave for 500 bucks than local PD and FD. But as a scanner
person I am thinking that if its coming down to most protocols in a radio
for the money Uniden is leading the pack.
