Default Airband scanner

Uniden could have ignored VHF-Air and / or the AM processing circuitry
on the units you've tried,as they were mainly marketed towards police

sensitive, they actually got overloaded by nearby transmissions, as I
scanned public services. I never used mine for VHF-Air, so mine could
have been just as bad on those frequencies or AM signals.


Hm. I'll have to put my IC-A24 next to my Bearcat BC-895XLT and see how they
stack up.
