I decided to get a hobby and i bought a radio shack pro-197 digital scanner.
Problem is,i have no idea ho to use it.
Is there anyone in the Warren, MI area that could teach me the basics to get me going?
My email address is rprice@ideagroupus.com

The best way to program that model of scanner is with the data cable, one of the programming software packages, and a subscription to this site. (There are many other threads on the programming of these radios.)

With your location, you will want to load in the statewide radio system, MPSCS, which Macomb County and Detroit use for most public safety communications, and making scan lists of your preferred agencies.
