This whole race scanner industry was started by Glen Aikenhead, a former oil field worker in Alaska. I met him when I was the Indy car tech for Racing Radios in the late 80s. At first we never gave out freqs, I think someone at NASCAR may not have liked the idea and since Racing Radios was tight with them followed their request.

I got Glen a CART credential which we called hard cards for some reason. He started renting from a Ford van, by the time he sold Track Scan he had 5 or 6 tractor trailer units selling and renting at tracks.
