Hello Everybody,
My name is Tom, and I live in Central Florida, about 35 miles NW of Orlando. I am a SWL and used to be a scanner listener until track and encryption became standard. I have a Radio Shack PRO-2006, but about the only thing I hear is NOAA weather. It's pretty much a brick any more.
I've been looking at the Uniden Bearcat SDS 200. I have 2 questions.
1) I've read that you can program this scanner simply entering your Zip Code. Yes or No?
2) If you are able to program the scanner by entering your Zip Cope, does the SDS200 allow you to enter additional Zip Codes?
I'm mostly interested in monitoring Police/Fire/EMS. Thanks in advance for your comments.
