I have been looking for a scanning hand-held radio that would pick up police and fire bands. Seems like Uniden has a corner on the market there. Was just wondering if anyone could throw a few recomendations at me. For the record I live in a very rural area, so I don't think I need all that many channels. I could be wrong though... Don't know a damn thing about these scanners:) Reason I'd like one is that I work nights, and we have shit happen fairly often in the parking lots. I call 911 etc, but I never get to hear how it ends up... Thank's for any info... RS
