Unhappy Digital scanner and OPD
I want to listen to Omaha police and have a RS Pro95 dual trunking scanner. I'm told that this scanner will not work because it is not digital. Does this sound right?

I prolly should have recommend a scanner or two.


Categoryigital Scanners - The RadioReference Wiki

Uniden BCD396t/BCD396XT
GRE PSR500
Radioshack Pro 96/Pro 106 (PSR500s Cousin)

Expect to spend around $450-$500 for a new Scanner.
I would not buy a 396 or Pro-96 new, those are older scanners.

You might be able to find a 396t or Pro-96 used for about $300.

You could also pick up a BC796D. I got one off craigslist last year for $125.00 work great for Omaha-CB area.
