I'd like to start by getting into scanners. I had one as a kid and was completely fascinated by it. It had like 5 channels LOL......It was very simple to use. You just turned it on and hit scan. It would scan through the five channels with a red light moving through each channel. When the channel became in use, the red light would stop on it until the transmision was over then it would start scanning again. I bought one a couple years ago and it was so damn complicated I couldnt figure out how to use it. (and I consider myself pretty technologically informed) The instructions were just about worthless....I have never bought such a high tech piece of equipment with such minimal instrucitons. So I got frustrated and brought it back. Maybe you guys can recommend one that isnt so complicated to operate. Or at least one that comes with some descent intructions. Keep in mind that I live in a small town. So there probably isint alot going on at one time anyway. Well, I take that back. It's been like the wild west around here lately....LOL.... Thanks guys.
