First, you may want to turn the cap lock off. Second, you seem to be frustrated with the 94. I used to be frustrated with a similar radio--Pro-90. Third, you haven't stated what you want to monitor--county, city systems. Another place you may wish to post is in the Washington state forum. There may actually be someone close to you to help.

Hi

Thanks for the response. I like to listen to the police local. Fire ect. Exciting stuff. I wonder if radioshack has a new bok out on the channels they use now. Maybe even to cell phone convo's! That would be great! I'm harmless. Disabled in a chair, i have nothing to do but sit and listen and watch. Thanks again appreciate your time.

Jack RS stopped selling Police Call some time ago; however there are much better resources available. The first would be our own database (just click on the link - anything in blue and/or underlined)

And ScannerStuff has been selling their own reference manual for awhile now. The nice thing here is that you can subscribe for updates to the book for free...

And there are a few mailing lists that cover Washington state - I'l leave it up to the Washingtonians to say whether they're worthwhile, and whether the book above is similarly worthwhile to have....
