    What to do with OLD Analog Radios

    I scanned pretty heavy in the 90s and then after 9/11 things began to change toward digital where I live. After that I moved several times and again became hindered by digital. I'm planning to purchase a Digital--but can I still get some use out of the old radios? What are your suggestions?
