what new radio related stuff did you get for the holidays ?

[zzdiesel]

Nothing hardware related, but I did get an iPhone and I put the Scanner Ap on it. It is really cool.

2 Uniden 996xt

I received 2 Uniden 996xt's. One for the house and one for the car. I am a happy scaner addict.

I got a Pro-106.
Yesterday I found a site (this site I thought) that had 4 videos about programming it with the Radio Shack cable. I can no longer find that site. If someone knows what I am speaking of, can you please post a link to the site? Thanks

I got a radio shack pro-197

I scored an Ambient weather station WS1080 and it transmits in the Amateur 70CM band in the 433Mhz range So I guess this counts as radio related

A new netbook to log my frequencies in

Hey guys, this would be my FIRST POST!!!!

I received as a Christmas gift a:

UNIDEN BC72XLT scanner. I love the thing, even though it is a hand held, and not software programmable, it works great, the sound is awesome, and the reception is great for its size! Although it was difficult to read the manual to program, very confusing lol. but very customizable once you learn it!!! Air traffic, police, fire, ham, weather, marine all come in great! and you can prioritize frequencies...
It was a superb gift, i love it more then my new phone lmfao....

I'm a LIL mad however that agencies across the nation have switched over to a "unmonitored" system which I believe STOMPS all over our rights, but a few counties/ cities are actually rebroadcasting "non-sensitive" channels on regular bands for us "scanner folk". so I'm hoping others will too!! (doubt it)

But none the less, a great scanner for the beginner class! GREAT BUY! I can pick up anything I want basically, thanks to this site! Even fast food transmitters (which I find hilarious)

last year i got a CB radio....Gawsh, I think I'm turning into "super nerd" lol!

Got myself a new bcd396xt and bct15x (with the assistance of some cash i received). Winter seems to cause me to spend more on electronics.

 

[sfreiman]

PSR-700...loving it!

 

[w2txb]

I got a Pro-106 a few days early.

Same here, and have a PRO-197 coming in the next day or so (ordered on 12/2210).

 

[kc8hnz]

Got an SDR IP from Santa CARD and a bct15x for analog work from the wife so I can free up the 996xt for digital work

Nada

Didn't get any radios! My wife decided to take me to Nashville, TN for a Garth Brooks concert. Concert was OK, the motel was terrible.

 

[FLA2760]

PRO 107 aka I-SCAN, I learned the wife ordered it on Thanksgiving day on sale. It is pretty cool and my unit seems to do very well on the air band and 800 MHz trunking. I am using the RS 800MHz antenna on it.

 

[W6KRU]

I got a netbook that is amazingly small and very handy for programming scanners.

 

[greedo23]

New Icom IC-U82 for UHF monitoring and playing on IRLP. Also an XM unit for the vehicle.
