I bought this radio to listen in on ATC ( aviation communications) as I’m going for my pilots certification, that being said I was only interested In basic operational radio, this radio is a bit confusing and I’ve still not been able to figure these pre-installed channels so I’ve just installed my local airport frequencies. Radio operation are multi and a value as to have multi radio features in one radio as it gets Fire/police, weather, aircraft, etc, I did call whistler and they’re support is great! Make sure you have the code when you purchase as it won’t work without code, I had to call support, very easy. Comes with a battery tray for rechargeable batteries. (Reg-batteries last me 3 day 24-7 left on by accident) The face place can scratch and I’m going to put small piece gorilla glass to protect. Hope this helps, I would of gave 5 stars if it was little easier to figure out but truthfully that’s my fault.Read full review

This scanner does not receive weak signals well, Even with a quality mobile antenna. I live in a rural area 20 miles from the transmitters. Does not work well under these conditions.

This is an older scanner so it does not have a lot of common frequencies but I wanted something inexpensive for fire, medical, air, and 2 meter. These are all I car about since most police stuff in my area is encrypted. So, while it does not have a lot of bands, it has all of the ones I cared about
