[TheList] Uniden digital scanners

Mon Sep 16 13:39:39 AEST 2019

When I was in the US last and purchased my Icon-IC-R30 scanner, I was able to purchase the US Govt. version because I was transiting the country with my passport and a return ticket. 
They sold it to me no problem. 

Would have brought in NZ by the way, but had US Dollars from previous trip and I was able to touch it in the store, RWB are fantastic here in NZ for equipment, and would recommend them if you are looking for Icom gear.
