I like to use the B band of my TH-F6A for a scanner. It's great! scans a
little slow, but still, sitting out on the deck when we have nice days or on
vacation, best money I ever spent, with the T90A being a close second though
if the T90A could do that I think it would be first due to the metal case on
it and I like the way some of the functions work on that radio a little
better,  all told, they are in a dead tie for my favorite and I like and use
both a lot.
