I'm looking for a scanner to listen to my local police/fire/EMS but the more research I do the more confusing and complicated these scanners seem to be. My local police/fire/EMS use digital channels which I'm understanding to be the 800 MHz channels. I'm not really sure what would be best for my needs because the more I research the more bells and whistles I seem to want and the more expensive these things seem to get. I just want a good bang for the buck scanner that'll work well for the Anne Arundel County, MD area.
