Bronson from Battle Creek, MI.

I monitor Law Enforcement and DNR communications on the Michigan MPSCS. I also monitor and check into nets on the 2m ham bands, and plan on getting into 70cm sometime within the year.

For equipment, I have a Uniden BCD996T,and a Uniden BC80XLT (never used anymore). For ham comm I use a Yaesu FT-1802M (currently set up for base with a Samlex 1223 switching power supply) and a Yaesu VX-170. Standard stock antennas are used with both scanners, however I do use a Radio Shack mobile mag mount scanner antenna for the BCD996T. I use a homebuilt j-pole antenna tuned to 146MHz for the FT-1802M, and have a CSB-790A Comet antenna with a K400S mobile lip mount (came with a SMA to PL-259 adaptor) for use with either the FT-1802 or the VX-170.

Happy monitoring,
Bronson

I'm in the Pinckney area and I enjoy monitoring the following:

1. MPSCS (Various, Local LE & Fire, MSP)
2. Washtenaw County - Ann Arbor / County Units
3. Military / Aircraft
4. Skywarn (Weather permitting)

I've had a scanner at my side since i was probably 13 or so (thanks Dad!) and have had one ever since. I recently purchased a PSR-500 and am enjoying the benefits of listening to digitally trunked systems.

Cheers,

B

Hi from Sandusky, MI !

A nub to this forum!

Currently have a Radio Shack Pro-76 scanner, yeah- I know its rather on the old/wimpy side - but , hey I get;

Sanilac County Public Safety
Hospitals
Y83
ACA, and few other airlines
Sometimes Tuscola, Huron, and St. Clair traffic
Transit Buses
Road Commission
Local Business/farms
yada, yada

And I definitly know I need to get an upgrade soon, because from what I've heard - Sanilac County dispatch will be going digital soon.
