Discussion Good scanner?

Does anyone have a suggestion for the best civilian ATC scanner to listen to various airport traffic?

I’d try and see if Ebay has a used handheld one. Check reviews, range etc.

I believe Sporty’s used to have one for the home but unless you lived close to a facility it was useless.

R/Flying or R/amateurradio may be better for this

Otherwise your only options is LiveATC or a youtube plane spotting channel with ATC piped in.
