I'm looking for some suggestions on what to search for on Ebay or other auction or retail sites as far as scanners go. I'm basically looking for true wide band (I'll make antennas for various frequencies) but I want a single receiver that's good for anything from AM or sub AM frequencies all the way up to 2.4ghz.
A good solid starting unit, I don't mind missing bands but I really want a good bang for the buck unit that's going to get me sniffing on air as soon as I can with a lot of listening opportunities, preferably not just in the cw/audible band but for data transmission in HAM specs as well.
If the unit has a transmit capability I'm only looking for local low power DX facilities. I already have a 4 unit rack mount o'scope so I'm looking for a size considered receiver, I will sacrifice for bang for the buck consideration though =)
I'm looking in the 100-150 U.S. dollar range unless a few more bucks will give me a lot more features.
