WhistlerWS1010 Analogue Handheld Scanner,Black

And no free service return... its a self service and no option to request amazon for a pickup.

It's an entry level scanner with limited analog features, and it performs well for what it is. 400 channels is alot of memory, and it has great loud audio and decent reception. The stock antenna is a bit lame however, and stiff at a.voard, so it concerns me it may break off at the connector if it was to bang up against something, so I'm ordering a more flexible one, and also am external one as indoor reception is not great, but that's the building not the scanners fault. Air band does not receive anything, as I'm told you must benvery close to the airport to receive anything.This radio is sold under several brand names with the exact same internal guts, such as radio shack and others, so it's a very well known and popular radio. The only fault I can find with it is that it automatically rounds the frequency last digits up or down when you program it, for example it may change .162 to150, and its a bit of a pain to enter the exact frequency you want to, bur it's doable.I'm happy with the purchase, and give this scanner a good recommendation.

Good quality product. Works as expected for analog transmissions as advertised. Not sure about the battery charging for rechargeable batteries. Needs to have a battery level indicator. Directions for programming were great. No problem creating a scan group for my local use.

This is my first radio scanner and after a bit of homework I do find it easy to use. I found it useful to do some research on the limitations of the scanner but once I got used to them it is a really neat scanner with good reception. I am able to pick up marine traffic when sited near the coast, I haven't tried it near an airport yet, that's next on the list.I think this is a good unit as an introduction to scanning and would recommend it.

Calidad. Y funcionalidad

Very handy listening in to the air band frequencies..
