Don't get the base station units that are at Gates, those do not have nearly the capacity or feature set of any hand helds by any manufacturer. They did have one Radio Shack unit that to my recollection is a pretty good unit, however buying a new one is probably not that much more expensive and would gain you all accessories and a fresh ni-cad battery. New, you can go over to Walmart, back in the car audio/cb section, and get the Uniden "Sportcat 150". It's a very good starter unit. If you do so, be sure to go to Radio Shack and get the cb/ham telescoping antenna. The rubber-duck antenna that comes with most hand-held scanners is fine, but the telescoping antenna from Radio Shack works alot better. -- Tyler Yip : @Home Network : http://www.home.net System Administrator : 425 Broadway : tyler@corp.home.net : Redwood City, Calif. : @Home - Unreasonably Fast
