First let me say thank you Uniden for the HP-1 and the original first (Knox) TrunkTracker scanner.
I suggest that you combine two technologies and creat the Universal Scanner. Take the features of the HP-1 that utilizes the RR database and combine this with an internet radio like circuit that would use a WIFI connection to utilize the Live Audio portion of RR. Whenever the user had a WIFi connection, the user could scan in all 50 states, Canada and the world. In the user's localized area the user could do RF scanning to stay in communication when WIFI is not available or the agency is not represented in the live audio database. It might even be possible to do both types of scans at once. A user of the scanner could realize a dream of being able to sit in Texas and scan local agencies and at the same time scan New York City.
I for one would be willing to pay a bit of a premium for such a device.
