...scanner, primarily for the purpose of monitor aircraft radio traffic near my home. It seems like it's a real trick finding a source for crystals for this scanner in the 118-136 MHz band. Has anyone got an idea of where I can find these online? I've found a few but they have a pretty limited...

...fire dispatch has changed frequencies and I need to re-crystal them on our new frequency of 154.205 MHz. Any help in procuring the proper crystals would be greatly appreciated, as I don't want to bankrupt myself trying to purchase new ones. Most of the original crystal manufacturers, with the...

Hello. I'm trying to breathe life back into my two crystal controlled scanners. Perhaps you have a collection of crystals from old scanners. I need: VHF-HI - 153.785, 153.950, 154.145, 153.830, 155.745 UHF-T - 488.8875, 488.8625, 488.7125, 488.5375, 488.4875, 483.0875, 489.0875, 489.5625...

Specifically I'm looking at 120.050 and 120.500 but still monitoring my local airport to see what else might be active. Thanks for the heads-up on the two types of crystals, I wasn't aware of that!

Yes, incredibly weird website! I have sent an email to them to see what they can do. Really limited out there, might be worth trying to find equipment to create your own crystals!

I know next to nothing about crystals Check this eBay seller

Which frequencies do you need? Not much demand for scanner crystals any longer. I used to get them from Bomar through Radio Shack. You can check at G&G Communications or Ken's Electronics. Radio Shack and Regency scanners used a 10.7 MHz first IF. A lot of the Bearcat scanners used 10.8...

This guy might have something: Vintage CB HAM Radio Crystals Choice Channel and Frequency Replacements SEE DESC | eBay . Do you have the specs for freq (i.e. is it something like x9 + 10.7), size, etc.?

Thanks. Bomar responded to me but said that they wanted $50 per Crystal for specific frequencies. So, do some quick math and come up with $500 for 10 channels? I wanted to be nostalgic, not broke!

...unknown frequency (regardless of emission type) just to catch brief transmissions without tying up a digital scanner. Then once I hear anything from the pro-2006 and it's not FM, I put it in the digital scanner to decode. The 2nd pro-2006 is full time aircraft. No crystals to buy. Regards...

Wallace radio will not sell crystals separately without servicing my monitors at a premium, which is out of the question. I'm doing this for my local fire company on my own time and dime. I've already checked with G&G with no luck in his stash, so I guess I'll wait for more replies. Either way...

Thanks Richard! I think my nostalgia may have gotten in the way of my common sense, per usual!

...scanners of old that I grew up on, I've been listening since I was a child, my Grandfather and Father got me into it, back in the days of "crystals", I'm now 59 so gives you an idea how long, lol. I've been fiddling around with "Quick keys", I did try the option of using my zip code and holy...

...Mahwah were on 37.08, and towns near Rt 208 from Fair Lawn to Franklin Lakes as well as Ridgewood and Midland Park were on 158.73. You could hear plenty with just those two frequencies, which was good because you had to buy crystals for the first scanners, which could only scan 8 or 10...

...PRO-2096 is very old. Both the PRO-96 and PRO-2096 suffer from frequency drift. Frequency accuracy is critical for decoding P25 systems. Crystals can change frequency as they age, normally decreasing in frequency. Inside the scanner, you may need to adjust VR3 to compensate for the...

Press Squelch, for your SERVICE MENU and pick which services you want turned on or off, this helps a lot.

Thank you, I will give these a try.

...of Police Call to come out! Never knew this existed until long ago I stopped by the Electra "factory" in Indianapolis to pick up some crystals for a trip farther north. The helpful person pulled out their copy of Police Call just to be sure I got the proper ones. No telling how many...

I'm looking to buy 10.7 iF (non-Bearcat) and 10.8 iF (Bearcat) HC-25U vintage, two-pin scanner crystals in bulk, lots of 50+ preferred. I have a small eBay 'store' which has been in operation for about three years. I'm particularly looking for VHF-high (144-177 MHz) and UHF crystals... the...

...in technology is a requirement for scanning. I remember how excited I was when the first synthesized radios became available. No more crystals to buy. Track tuning expanded range etc, My other activity is photography. Of course I have digital cameras and photo software. However, I still...
