I’m really open to something that is NIB, either an
entire kit or just the fuselage itself but must be new. Let me know what’s
out there.

Hey Jim, I am very pleased with my JR 9303 on ham band. Note also that
all the receivers except PCM stuff use the same shift so will work well
with each other. I am currently running JR, Futaba and FMA receivers
with the same JR transmitter. On the other hand, there is no way to
change a 72 MHz
All this talk about frequency checkers has me thinking once again about
channel interference. To be clear, I'm talking about glitches due to
multiple transmitters on the same frequency.
First of all, I think the new low-end Hobbico scanner is a great idea. I

I have one of the new Hobbico scanners and love it! Even us less

figure it out! Now if I can only figure out how you guys are hearing the
thing through the headsets.. ;)

Like Jim B. said. The Aero Spectra is a true professional grade
instrument which can even predict battery failure in a tx. The read out

interference etc. The adjacent channel comparison when in zoom mode is
an eye opener. You can
A lot of good points raised on synth capability, frequency checkers,
etc. I've been using these almost daily for several months now and I'll
agree with most all of the opinions offered, both plus and minus::
- They're a great tool.
- It's easy to make mistakes.
- You really need a back-up syste
