• Effective immediately we will be deleting, without notice, any negative threads or posts that deal with the use of encryption and streaming of scanner audio.

    We've noticed a huge increase in rants and negative posts that revolve around agencies going to encryption due to the broadcasting of scanner audio on the internet. It's now worn out and continues to be the same recycled rants. These rants hijack the threads and derail the conversation. They no longer have a place anywhere on this forum other than in the designated threads in the Rants forum in the Tavern.

    If you violate these guidelines your post will be deleted without notice and an infraction will be issued. We are not against discussion of this issue. You just need to do it in the right place. For example:

What model of Garmin GPS are you using? Also, what did you do for your speaker from the Uniden?

I am using the gps 18 pc model from Garmin. I bought this. http://www.provantage.com/garmin-010-00321-54~7GRMN038.htm

The speaker you can see above (in the pic) my CB and to the right of the scanner. It is kind of obscured. It is branded as a Maxon, I bought it at a local radio shop in Rolla, MO about 4 years ago. It is about 2" tall by 4" wide by 3" deep. Sorry I can't find a link. I have seen other speakers that look the same but with different branding, I think it is a good speaker; definitely better than those I have purchased at Radio Shack.

The speaker looks like this.

But with Maxon branding.

that looks very much like one I picked up some 15 years ago at Gateway Electronics (www.gatewayelex.com). I currently use it in the shack but have in years past used in the car. The one I have in my vehicle now is a little round jobber that sort of gives me a retro feeling like I should driving a van in the 1970's :)

Max...
