We just got radio, television, and computers here in

can do.

All that means to me is two elephants using their trunks to wrestle
each other.

Can anyone find a site that will tell you whether there is any
trunking around here, or in Southern illinois, or Northwestern
Kentucky and Tennessee?

OK as I'm reading right now, I notice that the AOR has a frequency
range from 500K to 3GHZ
The Uniden goes from 25MHZ to 3Ghz

Does that mean that I can use the AOR scanner to pick up shortwave
stations around the world from 500khz on up to 30mhz, and the Uniden
can't? Also WWV at 5,10,15 mhz.

Shortwave is far more important to me in this area than is a trunking
ability.

Thanks
