For me the bc9000xlt is better radio. Since im a big fan of alpha-tag (and
he give 16 chars to display a frequency), general coverage and ctcss the
bc9000xlt is a most usefull radio for me. It's not a yupiteru or a aor but
he is pretty nice, good sound and fast as hell.
I got 2045 ans 2006 and i will chose the bc9000xlt before them both. I will
have to try a bc780 one day ...
I have 2 PRO-2045's and really like that radio, good audio as well.
I had 1 BC9000XLT. Didn't like it because it received so many Cell phone
images in the 225-400 MHz range it made MilAir receiving worthless. My
closest Cell Phone tower at the time was over 5 miles away!
If you want to monitor MilAir then say away from the 9000XLT, that was
the only complaint however I had regarding that radio.
But recently I've pickup up used (but in great condition) PRO-2045's for
$100, that's an excellent scanner for $100. Great MilAir preformance.
