SCANNING THE AIRWAVES SINCE 1987
....to like the BCD436HP scanner. I really have.
How is it when it comes to two scanners that practically do the same thing and are programed exactly the same way, one gets used daily and is my favorite scanner in the stable (the 536) and the other one is the red-headed stepchild that I can't stand (the 436)?
Yeah, I know, it makes no sense.
You'd think I'd like, and use, them equally, but that's not the case. I've got the 536 programmed with everything I need / want to listen to when at my desk, and the 436 has the same programming for when I go mobile, plus additional FL's for the areas I visit most. You'd think.....
I don't know if it's the display, the form factor or aliens from Mars influencing my brain, but I just can't stand to use the 436. It still goes with me when I hit the road, but so does one of my HP-1's. I'll go to the 436 first, use it for a few minutes and then HAVE to switch over to the HP-1.
Would love to get your input on this.
Does anyone else feel this way, or am I the only one that's just totally off my gourd?
