I am in the market for getting a new scanner & I am in a toss up between the Radio Shack model 97 analog (on sale this week for $150) or getting a model 96 digital or possibly the 2096 (please note that if you have a better recommendation, by all means post up). Purpose - Listening to general police/fire/rescue traffic and possibly getting into other freq's that never knew were there. I used to be happy with my old scanner, but it doesn't receive anything over 512 MHz (yeah, its that old) but everyone either went 800 analog or 800 digital. It seems that the new models don't have stalker II to search for channels or am I wrong? Post up, lets hear it from the locals & others with the Pro's/con's of these models. Thanks. n8
