AOR units have fantastic receiver specs. I have numerous AOR receivers
and they outperform any of my RS, Alinco or Uniden scanners. (However
they do not have a model with built in APCO25 nor trunk tracking. They
make high end receivers with scanning features, not scanners with
compromised receivers.) They are also the number 1 choice of government
and intelligence agencies. That ought to speak well for their gear.
If you need APCO25 or trunk tracking, stick with Uniden or RS, but if
you want a high end receiver, AOR is a winner.
