Following the previous discussion of scanners, I did a comparison of
three different scanners (Uniden, Radioshack and ICOM) by recording
clips from each unit using the same outdoor antenna.

I was surprised by how much the ICOM-A6 outperformed the other models,
but the picture (audio in this case) is worth a thousand words. It
could be of use to anyone considering purchasing these for aviation
use.

You can find the recordings here.

Wow Andrew, what a difference. Of course the two you chose to compare to the
ICOM A6 were the two that I happen to have... grrrr.

Thanks (I think) for doing the comparison.
