Anyone familiar with Police Scanners?
My Pops is a big scanner (and everything else electronic) guy, and he just upgraded his so I got his hand me down. Its a Uniden BC898T...and I have no fucking clue what to do with it.
Seriously, I spent all day yesterday on Radioreference.com and other scanner forums trying to figure this out, but these guys are speaking a different language. I used the database to program 15 local frequencies into Bank A...and it seems to be doing ok, but I feel like I'm missing a lot. I'm looking for some advice on how to get started in this hobby. BTW, there are A LOT of drunk drivers around here, and I live in a fairly small town. I heard 3 DWI arrests yesterday at locations within a 5 mile radius to my house.
