Somebody emailed me that an idiot that I killfiled a long time ago is saying
that the Walmart units don't work well. I've had several dozen students
using them for over a semester with excellent results. They are crystal
synthesized and stable as a (literal) rock and have the power to be just
barely legal and cover a maximum amount of legal distance.

The idiot goes on to say (according to the email) that he is using an
illegal transmitter and linear amplifier to increase his range. You want to
take the chance that the FCC won't catch you, be my guest.

That's exactly why I wanted your opinion. I'm now looking for an unwanted
scanner that gets the aviation band, and will look into the Walmart
transmitter you mentioned. Thanks.
