Just curious to know what brands are most popular! I'm a trusted Uniden user myself.
Ultimately though, the best stuff is /\/\otorola equipment for listening.
I use Uniden as well - currently have a BC780XLT, BCT15, a couple of BC560XLTs, a BC147 and BC148XLT, BC246T handheld and a few others Im sure. I have a few of the lower end PRO series tabletop Radio Shack units which I have no complaints about either.
I would like to try a GRE sometime, they have a couple of nice looking base units.
I also have an ICOM IC-R2 handheld receiver, and quite frequently listen with my Yaesu VX-5R.

Moto makes scanner?.am a total newb
No. They make radios that scan.
Trade all your neat scanner features for RF performance. In return you'll get a nearly crunch-proof receiver, scan only 16 talk groups at a time, and the privilege of either buying expensive programming software, or knowing someone else who has. And you need to know what you're doing to keep out of trouble.
