My Wife and Daughter left this morning to get their nails done, on their way home they stopped at a few Consignment Shops. So the phone rings and my Wife says "I found you some radio stuff, do you want it?" I asked her what she found and she goes on to tell me... a Cobra 19 Ultra III that looks new.... for $10.00 and they will give her 15% off of that. I told her to snatch it. Just hooked it up and the little thing sounded pretty good. Then I put a handheld D104 that I have on it and this tiny little radio is a screamer . I got multiple radio checks and guys could not believe what I was running, and the little thing has great receive as well!
Then she also picked me up a Radio Shack Pro-433 1000 channel Triple Trunking Scanner, with a speaker and a mobile scanner antenna.... price... $20.00 minus 15%. Scanner works great and has awesome receive audio!
I'm gonna start sending her out more often! ;D

Kinda looks like the Cobra 19 is similar to the Uniden 510-520 series rigs?

My Wife left our number with them in case they would ever get any more radio equipment in to give us a call. Today the phone rings and they had another Pro-433 like new with everything included for the same price and asked if we were interested .... my Wife is stopping there before work to pick it up! ;D

I found a police scanner at my local thrift shop but i didn't buy it as they are as worthless as a rock since the local PD has gone to encrypted digital... :-(
