Thinking about buying a dedicated scanner for the air band. I live in Northern NJ, so lots of activity. Looking for selectivity and sensitivity.
So, I was thinking about an Icom R-6, but not really in love with it. No keypad sits poorly with me. I see some on ebay for as little as $100, but if the r6 had a USB port and a keypad, it would be a no-brainer for me below $200.
Any thoughts?
Side note: I remember seeing a brand of airband-only scanners. Had like 20-50 channels of storage. This was YEARS ago, maybe as much as 18 years, but I can't remember.
