Scanning Hobby
About 8 months Ago i picked up a Uniden BR330T Scanner from Radio World( pic's can be seen below) since then i have been hooked on it. Once you program all the frequencies you need and get the hang of it , the Scanning hobby can be a lot of fun

I had a Uniden Bear Cat or Sport Cat.
Something like that.
Used to get everything due to the Duck Elminator.
I got rid of it when I heard about the Digital wave. Waitin for the Price to go down on The Digi's before I get back into it.

thats pretty cool, whas the trunk tracker thing?
i had a scanner years back and we used to listen in while out doing things that were legal with our cars. always had fun with that and even picked up random cell phone calls. one day i heard a cop calling the hospital and acting as if it was police business only to find out it was a friend of hers she was calling. then it went for a swim with my friends car and thats the last of that. wouldnt mind a digital unit though
