DD> And what's the cost?
 Art_P> Depends on what exactly you are looking for - from hundreds to
 Art_P> thousands.
Yikes , out of my price range , would it be easy to pick up a used one 
anywhere?
 DD> What kind of transmissions will you recieve?
 Art_P> Again, depends on what you buy. Ham Radio, Marine and Aeronautical,
 Art_P> International Broadcasters, Police, Fire, Ambulance, AM- FM,
 Art_P> Satellites, the list is endless.
I wan't all.
But what if I was to buy one , and find half of the bands don't have any 
signals on them?
 DD> Anyways I'm going on too long here , hope someone can help me
 DD> out?
 Art_P> We are trying...
 DD> ANd what is Ham Radio?
 Art_P> If you have Internet access, go to rec.radio.info and you will find
 Art_P> detailed
 Art_P> explanations and FAQs. In your Newspaper store look for QST- or CQ
 Art_P> Magazines, check out your local library for those as well and any
 Art_P> radio related books.
I don't , but anyways.
 Art_P> Good luck,
 Art_P> Art
