Ok. you guys have done well on the other post i had.
So i figure i would give it a shot.

Since I purchased a house in the country i would like to get a scanner and weather radio.

I have no clue what i would need.

So find me a good deal! thanks!

do you want a tabletop or handheld scanner?

waggy, is this RadioShack model (http://service.bfast.com/bfast/click?bfmid=36181637&siteid=40911438&bfpid=20-424&bfmtype=120) something like you are looking for?

Just making sure before I look for more deals. They had city and rural models, so I chose rural and that one came up.

Also the price on that one is $89.99. Do you want something cheaper / more expensive / around that price?

Yeah something like that.

I was looking for cheap. but just mainly want something that i can use in crappy weather.

Well if you need something just for weather, take a look at this Midland model from Amazon:

It has the newer technology so you don't get warnings for counties far away - you can select your exact location.

The RadioShack model was a full scanner and weather radio.
