You state "That it's a receiver doesn't make it a scanner". So, my Radio
Shack Pro-2035 Receiver isn't a scanner? It says on the front of it,
"receiver" and it scans!!!

That it's a receiver doesn't make it not as scanner eitgher.

What's your native language? Maybe I can translate my original
statement into it so that you'll understand what I said. Your
question shows that either you don't, or you're trying to act smart.

I guess all radio receivers can be a scanner with the right
modifications, including my TV with an antennae.

Just keep your finger on one of the "channel" buttons (up or down) on
the remote, and lift it as soon as you see a picture. Your TV set
just scanned the channels. Yup. :)

ICOM R20 is a scanner! A radio receiver is a radio receiver,
no matter how fancy you make it or add on the "features". A
radio receiver can only receive and cannot transmit regardless
of any perceived "modifications"!

That it's a receiver doesn't make it a scanner.


If it scans, doesn't that make it a scanner?

Do you know what AOR is? or Icom? Have you ever heard of the AOR AR3000?
or the Icom scanners?

There's a difference between a wide-band radio that can "scan" a few
channels and a scanner. Without considerable help, neither the AOR nor
the Icom can "scan" a trunked system - one of the things the OP asked
for.

I do believe one of those companies just came out with a wide band receiver
that actually *does* scan trunked systems - without considerable help. Does
that still not meet your criteria for a scanner? Is the name "Icom" or
"AOR" that you don't like?

Does putting a load in the back seat of your VW make it a truck?
