First you need to figure out what you need. Do you need trunking and if so
what kind. Is your area digital and if so is it 9600 baud or not. Your
choices narrow significantly as you need more features. For example if your
area is digital 9600 baud your only current choice is the RS Pro 96. If you
have no trunking or digital you have a huge choice of new and used scanners.

If you just need a generic scanner with no trunking or digital then you
should find and opinion from someone who lives in your area or similar area.
If you are in a urban area you do not want sensitivity. If you live in a
more rural area then you will need more sensitivity if you are trying to
pick up an signal from further away.

It is not as simple as to what is the best.

HELP - WHAT IS THE BEST NEW SCANNER?


Looking for owners that actually own the scanner that can recommend a
good all around scanner. Thanks.
