X-To: swl-l@cuvmb.cc.columbia.edu To: UofToronto LAN redistribution Message-ID: <90Jan18.113252est.57889@ugw.utcs.utoronto.ca> Newsgroups: bitnet.swl-l Distribution: ut Approved: devnull@gpu.utcs.toronto.edu I will be willing to bet $12.00 to a dozen of "DUNKIN D"'s best that this question has been asked before but :---- I want to get a scanner that will cover 6 to 10 frequencies, go as high as 500 Mhz and as low as 46 Mhz, cover the 2 meter and 440 ham bands and the downlinks for the geos weather satellites. Price IS a consideration since I just replaced my home-brew stuff with a Kenwood 440AT and I can't afford the divorce and the alimony if I being another expensive piece of gear into the shack at this time. Reply either via the net or e-mail and I will try to summarize and post in case there are other scanner novices out there. Dave KE2AG
