Hello,
I am a collector of crystal controlled scanners.
I want like to know if there are more collectors at this forum to share some information.

My location is The Netherlands
You can see my collection at Kristalscanner.nl

Very nice collection my friend. I think most of us old timers started out on a crystal scanners. I actually still have one working crystal scanner left (a Regency ACT-10) and honestly love it.

I'm sure you are gonna find a lot of us have a few of them left in various working conditions.

(By the way that Bearcat 8 Track is VERY cool ) :)

My wifes grandma has one up in Alpena,MI at her cabin Can't quite remember what it is though.. Next I go up there I'll look.. When I was up there a few years ago. You could listen to the radio or the pd on it. Not sure if you still can. But it still functions today as far as I know. I'll have to get a pic of it and post it.

Very nice collection you have there for sure I like the old Cuna 4000.

I'm not a collector but I do have a couple of oldies here,I've got a Realistic Pro-52 8 channel crystal scanner and a Weatheralert Forcaster made by Electrolert.inc 3 channels.

Thanks for sharing.

Crystal controlled car radio/scanner

Today I have a new scanner for my collection.
The problem is:there is no information on the scanner exept the serial number.
Is there someone who knows more about this car radio/scanner?

Post the serial number, maybe a back shot...
Very cool scanner, I've never seen one like that.

The serial number is 2100546
But I think it's not gonna help.

I think you're right :wink:
Did you buy it across the pond...

Like I said I've never seen one like that, Regency made a table top model that had two crystals and a tuning low, later high band radio. I wonder if it's something they could have done... But if it's European... who knows.

Neat picture, I would have liked to have one back in the day.

Wonderful scanner collection, well-displayed, and nicely designed web page. Brings back a lot of memories to see the various scanners that were owned by my family or myself over the years, such as the Craig 4350A.

Thank you for sharing with us.
