I'm looking at buying one of these two Unidens but I thought that the
digital version (785D) with 500 more channels would be more expensive. The
780xlt has 500 less channels and isn't digital ready so why is it just a few
dollars cheaper then the 785D?

I mean if we're only talking 30-40 dollars (this is comparison shopping
around the net) more for the digital with 500 more channels, why would one
buy the 780xlt?!

BTW: $257! for the 785D with 8 bucks to ship, that is an incredible price,
by far the cheapest I've found around - http://www.bearcatscanner.com/

Thanks group!

Begs the question:

Is there a difference in quality between the 250D and the 785D,
or is it just size & portability?
