I have not used a cb in about 20 years so when I started researching I was overwhelmed with choices. The reason for getting a scanner or cb is to listen in and the people trespassing on my property. I tried the midland 75-822 and returned it the next day, scan function worked intermittently and the 8 battery holded did not power the unit. The issue I have is the scanner are large and want to be able to keep the unit fairly hidden when out on the back property. I saw the PR-106 was on sale but the unit is large and I do not see that it is waterproof. Also the GRE PSR-800 is a much smaller but could be overkill. The other option is a yaesu vx-3r, 6 etc which is waterproof and small, but I do not have ham license. I’m most interested in size and the ability to scan shortwave. I’m actually leaning towards trying the yaesu but since I lack experience with all this new equipment I’m not sure they actually would do what is needed. Any suggestions would be helpful in fulfilling the need I have.
Thank you
