How will having a scanner with a touch color screen really help me, as an avid scanner listener?
You will be able to get a full readout of the channel, the agency, the department, and other information about the frequency you are listening to, whereas with other types of screens you only get a very small amount of limited information. The touch screen allows you to easily program and get to know the scanner without memorizing a bunch of confusing buttons on the side of the scanner. With this scanner, you have the on and off button, the volume, and that’s about it. All of the other controls you access with the color touch screen.
