I have never used a scanner before but bought a BCD396XT to get started. I printed out the whole manual and browsed through it but don't understand most of the terminology. Scannermasters per-programmed my county for me, and I've been listening to EMS, fire, sheriff, etc. How do I get to the other "systems"? I got into them once or twice accidentally--and least I don't know what I did. I watched several YouTube videos, but they were just movies of someone's scanner in operation--I'm not sure who would profit from those.
Is there a video tutor for neophytes? I need a BCD396XT for Dummies. I really want to listen to 2-meter sw, CB when I'm on the road, aircraft-just for fun, etc., but can't figure it out.
Sorry to be so dumb, but would like some one to point me to a demo of some sorts or just walk me through what I need to do to start intelligently exploring this little gem.
Thanks much!
