This is a shot of my vintage scanners... I miss the old crystal scanner days.
Back when you could carry a 4 channel crystal scanner, and here everything in the city!
Portables pictured are:
Sharp FZ-400
Realistic Pro-83 (I know.. it's not a vintage scanner)
Uniden Sportcat SC150
Mobiles pictured are:
Realistic Patrolman Pro 77A VHF Hi/Lo
Realistic Patrolman Pro 45 VHF Hi/Lo
Sears VHF Hi/Lo
Bearcat III VHF Hi/UHF
I wish I would have kept the other scanners I had. I am slowly building up my vintage scanner collection.
The Bearcat III was new in the box, came with the bracket, AC & DC power cords, and the original manual.
The Pro 77A was used, but in great condition, and came with the original manual.
The Sharp FZ-400 (I didn't even know Sharp made scanners) was brand new in the box. Still was in the plastic wrapper, as well as the antenna, and owners manual. That was a recent purchase at the Shelby/Dallas hamfest for $10. I was happy!
The Sears scanner, seems to be identical to the Bearcat III series. Scans the same speed, sounds the same, looks the same inside! Intersting. I forgot where I picked this one up.
Also have a Uniden BCT-15, and a Uniden 396XT. Next will be a Uniden 996XT!
