My old Radio Shack Pro-51 is getting a bit tired and I'm thinking it's about time to drag it to the back of the barn and
give it one in the neck.
I have a pro-51 on ebay now, It is also my favorite scanner. I am selling it, but it works great and am having second thoughts. If you want another let me know i will save you some money
Any suggestions as to replacement? I've been thinking of Yaesu VR-500, but, as it has been around for a lot of years, I
suspect there are several possibilities in the same approximate price range ($250-500) that are more advanced than that.

I *really* haven't followed the markets over the past years, so I'm kinda in the dark (lots of brands, yupiteru,
bearcat, uniden etc. etc. )...

My basic requirements:
- Aviation traffic monitoring (99.9% of the time)
- I would be nice to monitor/control the scanner via Linux over [serial] connection
- Must be portable.

I'm all ears...
