Hi All.. I'm new to this scanner thing.. I've always listened to an app on my phone.. But recently, the County I live in switched to Digital Trunking (Mille Lacs). I also have a Son that is a Deputy Sheriff in bordering Sherburne Co.. Which Mom likes keeping tabs on him
I recently purchased a BCD996P2.. but after 3 days of trying to program it, manually and via this site's import feature into Freescan.. with no luck and way too much stress, frustration and headaches, I returned it! Couldn't deal with that expensive paper weight, I'm too old to be frazzling my brain like that!
What I am looking for is a simple and easy to program scanner, preferably handheld, so I can bring it to work with me and listen... Only care about Sherburne Co. (still analog) and Mille Lacs Co. (now digital trunking).
My question is.. What do you seasoned scanner enthusiasts recommend for good scanners for this nosy Mom.. LOL
Thanks much in advance!
