Just new here and have a R6 , I tried to scan some of the bands but all I got was the Adelaide Airport Tower and the
local FM radio Stations ? Do I need to program the frequencies in before and what step sizes do I use ? Are the step
sizes automatic or do I need to program them in. I know I need to read the Manual ? Any help would be welcome.

What is the general consensus of the R6? I am thinking of getting one in preference to the Uniden UBC-126AT. My budget doesn't stretch to anything digital at this point, so don't want to waste my cash.

Given how hard the UBC126AT is to find at the moment, the R6 is a good choice. I recently had one but sold it as a UBCD396XT works better for me. For VHF / UHF scanning, they work well.
