Good luck finding one. The speaker has to communicate via the RTSP protocol and have software/firmware so you could enter in the scanner IP address.

There are good bluetooth speakers. Use your computer, tablet or mobile phone to connect to the scanner in either WiFi infrastructure or access point mode and turn on bluetooth and pair with the speaker. Then start Siren.

They do sell a 3.5mm Bluetooth transmitter you can then set the volume to a decent level and use any speaker with a bluetooth receiver.

Thanks for the replies i thought i might have to go the Bluetooth route since i don't want to use a computer.
time to shop on amazon.

Ah, ok. I though you wanted to go the WiFi route so you could have the scanner unaltered and still be using it as normal and not have to go through the hazzle of unplugging a connector to get loudspeaker sound from it.

How much will the BT transmitter interfere with reception of the radio? My new car has no line in to run the radio through the speakers. Really p****d me off.

I like the Bluetooth transmitter because it does two speakers at once

Most BT devices are stereo so use a 1-2 stereo-mono cable splitter and connect to two scanners (might need ground loop isolation) and the same cable type to divide it up to two audio signals at the receiver or use a stereo BT speaker, or in the car the sound will come out of seperate speakers for the two scanners.
