Hello, I am a police officer and am taking a road trip in a few weeks and would like to moniter my Bearcat scanner along the way. Currently I use it primarily in the car while out on patrol and have all my neighboring jurisdictions and fire/ems channels programmed into it. Currently I just use a 800mhz antenna attached to the unit and the unit is secured to the passenger headrest via carabiners and para-cord (if I drove the same car every day I'd probably do a more complete set up, but alas I do not but this works fairly well). I also have a radio reference account and use freescan to make programming easier.
Basically I would like to monitor law enforcement/ems/public safety channels as well as department of transportation channels. Does anyone have any recommendations for gear to get (for example will I need a GPS Receiver if I am going to have so many channels programmed in?) and how to go about logistically programming the thing.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
