I am looking at getting a scanner for EAA Airventure and thought instead of getting just an analog scanner I might as well spend the extra and get a scanner for everything. So, I got confused.
At first, I was looking at scanner like the BCD75, but realized in a quick hurry that radio would not work for the fire grounds. So then I started looking at the SDS100, but then I noticed the BCD436 did about the same things for roughly a quarter the price. Then I thought before ordering, why not ask a dealer recommendation and Zip Scanner said TRX-1 (I think that is the the radio with the most profit for them at first, but they made some good points on that one over the Uniden) . So, tonight I was going to ask about it one last time before ordering and I did a chat and that person said either the G4/5 or the SDS100. And now I am confused.
So, what I am looking for is a scanner or possibly scanners to listen to EAA Airventure, Severe Weather Reports, and both Brown and Outagamie County in WI Fire. The radio needs to be handheld for Airventure and Severe Weather and easily movable for the Fire.
Thanks for any and all inputs,
