There is a ebay listing for psr 410's at buy now for $200. These do not have manuals,antenna,dc power cord or mounts.Only come with scanner and AC cord.I am looking for a dedicated air and mil air scanner and was wondering if it was worth it, or should I just buy a brand new BCT15 x for $135. Is the 410 that much better?

Tried that no responce from seller. I here the 410 was one of the best airband scanners and really want to try one. I am not in a real hurry so I will keep a eye out for a better deal.

I have both of these scanners. The BCT15X is miles ahead in my opinion when it comes to both civil and milair band scanning. The sensitivity and intermod resistance is better than the PSR-410.

The display on the PSR-410 is nicer though :)

I have owned both the 410 and the BCT15X and actually prefer the display on the 15X. And you would be better off looking for a better deal, if you look hard you can find them brand new with everything for 200-225.

We setteled on a price and it is on the way. I just heard that the 410 was great for milair and vhf air so I have to try it. I had a bct15 and it was a great scanner also.

i bought one a few years ago for a 150 bucks.has been my go to scanner for a few years now,never had an issue with it.unfortunately,my area is switching to a p25 phase 2 encrypted system,so,its days are numbered unfortunately.probably will keep it for dxing and such.too good a scanner to let it go.

Ihope to prove you wrong. My BCT15 does civilian air great but is weak in the Milair range. I have to try it and find out myself
