Wow, UNCLE! I watched that show religiously when I was a kid! "Open 
channel D"!  Actually the Scout makes an excellent spy radio. Though not 
shirt pocket size, its small enough for a briefcase or night table (if 
you're supposed to be sleeping, you can hide it under the covers).

Military H-189 or H-250 handsets can be adapted to work with the Scout. 
For stealth, just wrap a camo bandana (less than $2.00 in any sporting 
goods or camping store) woodland or desert pattern, depending on your 
surroundings. When portable, my Scout does well with and army surplus 16 
foot whip with a ceramic beehive insulator (looks cool on top of the 
Explorer, too).
