Airband Scanner Recommendations Please!

Dear Readers, I would appreciate your recommendations regarding a new airband scanner for both VHF civil & UHF military listening. I currently use a Yupiteru MVT 7100 but would like a comparable scanner that will allow for 'alpha tagging' of memory channels. Dynamic memory banks would be ideal but not essential, likewise pc control would not be essential either.

At present I am considering a Uniden BCD396T (have to buy from the US) which even has what they call 'close call' which will seek out strong local signals and copy them to memory. Imagine being at an airfield and being able to intercept all local transmissions with the frequency immediately displayed and stored!

Also the 'alpha tagging' would need to accommodate a good number of letters/numbers for instance, I might want to enter 'Lakenheath CH10' etc.

So please hit the 'comment' button and let me know!
