I've had scanners all of my life, but never one dedicated to trunk
tracking. I've read reviews and familiarized myself with what's
available, but what I really need are real-world opinions by the people
who own them. In your view, what is the BEST unit?

Here's 2 cents worth of opinion:

For non-digital trunking handheld:

The PRO-95 is on sale now at Radio Shack
for $129! This represents a fantastic value. 1000 memories, alpha tags,
computer
programmable, (a must in my opinion). Great free programming software
from Don Starr at http://www.starrsoft.com/

I do not own a the new Uniden 246T (trunk tracker III), But I just read a
review in
this Months Popular Communications by Gordon West.
This thing sounds pretty sweet: Upto 1600 memories, built in
frequency counter, etc... Wow for $229.
