    Baofeng Baofeng BF-F8HP Scanning Question

    Mike, thank you Sir! That's how I would expect it to work. I can place my order now with some confidence that it'll scan monitor like I need it to while being locked. Much appreciated Mike! 73's Roger KD9RLB Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Baofeng Baofeng BF-F8HP Scanning Question

    Hopefully someone who already owns a BF-F8HP can answer this for me. I'm trying to find out if this radio will continue to scan programmed channels when the keypad is locked. I've not had much luck with recently purchased UV-5R5's doing this successfully, once in scan mode and you try to lock...

    Yaesu: Setting up FT-60r for a road trip.

    Thanks, generally that is my plan. I'm looking for more detailed possibilities of the FT-60r HT. If none get mentioned then I'll probably go to K5EHX Amateur Radio Repeater Map and get repeaters along my route if travel. That's a great site if you've never seen it. Check it out. Thanks, Roger

    while scanning channels/freqs and it stops on an active channel, should the display light up or is it normal not to?

    Wow, thank you Tahoe1970! So considering all that info, I've sent my brother links to reviews and scannermaster.com for the BC125AT. For a nominal fee scannermaster.com will program in the counties you specify when you order the scanner from them. Much thanks to all for their input! Roger

    San Mateo county CA.

    Mark and northzone thanks for the replies guys. I think my brother has the typical first time scanner enthusiasm. Wants it ALL but doesn't understand the various formats etc. Since I want to buy it for him and either program it myself, or settle on a preprogrammed for his area scanner. I just...

    Can anyone recommend a police/EMS scanner for zip code 94002 san mateo county California? Per the database they're on project 25 phase 1. I'm looking a scanner in the under $200 range that I could program and send to my brother that lives there. I believe all he wants is police/fire/EMS scanning...

    Racing Freq

    Thanks Robert, you're probably right I didn't consider that. I just went with the assumption they used them. Thanks for the info!

    Racing Freq

    Oh I did search, found that exact link as well. But again, no tones to go with the frequencies. I appreciate the help though.

    Racing Freq

    Would anyone happen to have any 2016 IndyCar or Nascar team frequency lists for the Pro-106? I'm finding frequencies but no tone codes listed. I work right down the street from IMS and would love to listen in as the teams practice at the track preparing for race day. Thanks in advance, Roger

    NASCAR scan list PSR Edit for Pro-106

    Does anyone have a PSR Edit .bin file for the NASCAR teams they would be willing to share with me? I found the Freq list for NASCAR and track on RadioReference.com, but I'm not sure where things need to go in the file. Thanks in advance! Roger

    Okay so much for finding the GRE PSR-500 at Fry's in Castleton, guess I'll go with the RS Pro-106 if I want one relatively quickly. K9WG I may just take you up on the offer for the initial programming just to get it up and running. I can play around with learning the PC software side of...

    Kind of leaning towards the GRE PSR-500 from what I'm seeing. Heading up to Fry's later today to see what they have in store. Appreciate the offer to program it for me definitely! Although I want to take a stab at it myself first, if I botch it I might hit you up. Thanks, Roger
