Mine is a fine radio for Mil air frqs. Just as sensitive if not better
than my BC780. I haven't really tried it much in the civilian aircraft band
but don't doubt it's capability. What is a "good" price, in your mind?

P.S. Don't plan on doing any scanning with it as it is beastly s-l-o-w at
about 2 ch/sec! (roughly) Stops for a few seconds or an instant. No other
choices. And what's up with the USB/LSB on a VHF/UHF radio???
I assume you know it's capabilities?

Can anyone who owns a 9600 tell me how these radios are in the sensitivity
department I want to use one in the Airband area receiving acars data and

of
course voice comms as well but there is a chance of getting one for a good
price but are prepared to travel and have a play with it before parting

with
my cash thanks all.
