And I would not call the KG-UV9 a disposable Chinese ht. Now the Yaesu FT-60 also listens on Airband, but, if you don't need to talk on it is a waste.

Thanks for all the replies. 
Jardy, the KG-UV9D sounds good, but as Eddie cited, a good scanner would serve the purpose and looking at the 9D the scanner can be had for less.  Stan the sd007vu looks interesting but is a little large for my intended purpose.

Thanks for the input. Looks like I will just find me a cheap little vhf scanner. They tend to scan a lot faster than your standard HT anyway.

Thanks again and 73
