AWESOME I've had a scanner since i was 10 this is the best yet..Customer Review: This Scanner is Awesome,
Summary: 4 Stars
This scanner has no problem keeping track of ALL radio traffic. I live in densely populated San Francisco near the entrance to the bay and right under the GG bridge. This little scanner gets it all. CHP, Bridge Patrol, Bridge Electricians, Bridge Shuttle bus. SFPD, SFFD, EMS. Yellow Cab, DPT, Harbor Pilots, Tugs, laundry delivery trucks, totally (too much information)TMI! In search mode I get signal from as far north as San Rafael (Marin County)as far east as Oakland as far south as Burlingame with the supplied telescopic antenna! For mobile applications ditch the supplied little wire antenna'n get a magnetic roof mount.
Bear Tracker works. Had it on the road 2day and it picks off Mobile Extenders left and right.
Programing is as easy as spending a few hours in search mode and entering the stations as you get them. The Trunk tracking feature rocks. In time you will be able to tell who is who. Dont want that Freq? Delete it easily.
A well designed and easy to use product. Crystal clear reception, intelligent layout and the pre-programmed freqs. are amazing.
Pricy perhapes, but worth it. I feel like I have been scanning for years and this is only my 4th day.
5 stars for delivering the goods, in spades. I am very happy.
Customer Review: Good first scanner
Summary: 4 Stars
This is my first scanner, so I can't do good comparisons.
It has a good sensitivity: terrain here is not flat and I'm surrounded by high buildings and cell phone towers, but I can hear Talkabout transmissions several miles, mountains and buildings away. It is also good for aircraft communications, I can hear a tower located 30 km (~20 miles) away. The remote control feature is great, I did some interesting things using it.
Negative points:
* no alpha tags (and so many frequencies to remember);
* audible 60 Hz noise;
* telescopic antenna connector with a poor design;
* there is an annoying beep when it is turned on and
* the remote control feature requires RS232, I had to buy a USB/RS232 adapter.
