I've got a real old scanner... one that you can't tune to just any frequency, but rather you have to buy crystals for each channel! It's an oldie! And I had to listen awhile to figure out who I was listening to, because I got it used and they weren't labeled... it's got the local sheriff, city PD, state patrol, fire, and a frequency that sounds like it's the hospital emergency room receiving people.

Those are good ones too :>} I can't use them with my newer ones due to the crystal units internal scanning switch bleeding over to the other scanners.

It works, in spite of being real old! Garage sale special!

I bought my dad a better scanner a few years ago... thought he'd enjoy listening in... and he did listen to it, for awhile... Like me, I go in phases of leaving it on all the time.
