If you had a Scout / Smartline / Bearcat you could be
within 50 feet of someone with a handheld and when
they squeezed the PTT you'd instantly have the TX
freq and PL. This can be useful in many situations.
The RS scanner - at $60 - is handy for just this feature.
In addition you get a 10m/low band / 6m / aircraft /
2m / highband / UHF / 800 / 900 mhz scanner that
you can load up with frequencies from your PC.
Get them while they are in stock !!!
