It's not what it will do with what it can receive,
but what it can't receive that's gonna sink it.
The gaps are the fatal flaw:
• 25-54, 108-174, 216-225, 400-512, 806-956, 1240-1300 MHz Coverage
No coverage in the 72MHz RC model band
No coverage in the VHF TV band
No coverage in the UHF Aircraft (mil) band


Where in ....

'THE NEW COMPACT HANDHELD BC-246T LOOKS TO BE A BREAKTHROUGH IN SCANNER
DESIGN!! Measuring a mere 4-1/2 x 2-3/4 x 1-3/4, This Scanner will Cover 25-
1300Mhz, Do Motorola, GE & LTR Trunking, & have a Whopping 3,300 AlphNumeric
Channels!! And That's just the start!! - a Built-in Wireless Frequency
Counter will lock onto transmissions in an instant, ctcss, & DCS w/ instant
decode, Accepts REGULAR 'AA' Batteries (only 2), & will INclude NiMi AA's &
Charger!!. Dynamic Memory Configuration allows memories & groups to be
configured any way the user desires! PC Programming & control Too!! ...'

Do you see those gaps ?
25-1300 mhz sounds pretty straight forward to me.
