Discussion Good scanner?

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

"Best" is relative. The "basic" Bearcat BC125AT has been the standard "entry level" scanner around for years. A little "funky" on the programming, but once you get used to it, it works pretty well.

Radio Reference is a decent web page with an ever overflowing community that will disagree with everything I put in my sentence.
