Hey guys,

I'm interested in listening to air traffic control communication in my area.

My airport code is MROC (SJO), in San Jose, Costa Rica. According to liveatc.net, the frequencies are:

Facility Frequency

ADS 131.000
Aerodespacho Ops 135.000
Central American Center (CENAMER Control) 124.100
Coco Center (Control over CR Airspace) 119.600
Coco Clearance Delivery 121.300
Coco Ground 121.900
Coco Terminal Control 120.500
Coco Tower 118.600
Coco UNICOM 126.800
SYQ Ground 121.700
SYQ Tower 118.300

What cheap ( < $100 ) radio can you recommend (preferable if it's available in Amazon).

I was checking out the Uniden BC75XLT. From the users manual it appears the above frequencies can be listened to using this device, but I want to confirm with the experts ;-)

Thanks!
