went to trunking and I got a scanner that had trunking. Now they've gone to all digital and I get really nothing. So, I guess my scanning days are over 'till I get a digital one. Last I looked they were extremely expensive. And I guess digital is still evolving ... I think.

Best I had was in the 80's on CB when I lived by the intersection of a couple of major Interstates in a large apt. complex, there were several of them. There were CB radios then all over the place ... and I swear, some of the people out there were certifiably insane. Some of the stuff was really really freaky.

PS: I just noticed the radioreference.com link, I'll give that a try!

Just tried it, works great! Lots of drunk drivers driving around. Also concern about some shotgun blasts, also some guy running around in a black hood someplace and several domestic arguments going on ...
