I know scanners have been discussed on the forums before, but i still have some questions. I would like to ask for your help in making a choice in a scanner. I'm am looking for a good one for around $100. I looked at ones like Icom which i hear were good, but the IC-A6 selling for around $240 is too much.
I would like to know from people who used them, what they like, dislike, if there is one to avoid, pros and cons...; what are the differences between the scanners. Which are good a picking up a signal form a distance, like form the mounds or firestone? I am not an expert in this field. I like the Uniden because they are smaller, so better for travel, but i don't really like the Nascar logo on them. However, right now i'm leaning towards the Pro-135
I have narrowed my choices down to three:
(but if you know another good one please tell me)
Pro-135
$100

From the radio shack pro series scanners, I head about older Pro- models and they sound good. I can find the older ones like the Pro-82 but this one seems to be part of that line, just a newer version?
Uniden BC72XTL
$80-$90
- http://www.amazon.com/Uniden-BC72XLT-Ha ... 56KTC1A7P5

Lowest price.
Uniden BC92XTL
$110

Better version of the BC72?
Thanks for you help,
Mat
