While I haven't gotten a chance to use or see it personally, Satellite
Technology Services recently introduced a scanner that, on specs alone,
should obsolete not only the Air-8 but also the Terra, TR-720, etc.
It scans a full 720 channels, storing 10 frequencies, has a rubber-ducky
antenna, cigarette lighter adapter, nicad battery pack, 90 day money back
guarantee, 3 year warantee, and 24-hour service, and costs just $299.50.

Oh yes, it also *transmits*.

They have a toll-free number 800-238-2300, and the usual disclaimers apply
(no connection with company, etc.)
