: Help! I'm interested in buying a handheld scanner and from
: what I've found on the net, I've narrowed my choices to
: either the PRO 26, AOR 8000, or the Icom R-10. I'm mainly
: interested in the VHF and UHF freqs. so would the PRO 26
: be my best choice? Computer control would be interesting
: too. Is this possible with the PRO 26? Is the PRO 26
: modifyable for the cell freqs without too much hassle?
: I've seen several web pages say it can't be done and a few
: that say it can. Can someone tell me yes or no? Also,
: where is a good dealer for the AOR and the best price?
: I'm new to the scanning scene, so any info. would be
: greatly appreciated.
the pro-26 are easily modificate!!! it work good, but not very sensitive. Also don't buy ar800 or ic-r10... they are receivers... not scanner... they don't search quickly!!!!!!
