Many Air-band radios are available today costing from just twenty pounds. The cheaper radio is usually able to pick up transmissions from civilian aircraft but are limited by the absence of accurate tuning so you cannot say exactly which frequency you are listening to.
A scanner, while more costly (£50+), usually consists of a keypad to enter a particular frequency, LCD display, a memory which will remember stored frequencies, and the ability to scan through a certain set of frequencies.
