Kevin P. Inscoe's Radio Monitor Page

Public Safety and Utility monitoring also known as "scanning" (from years ago when monitors would scan a series of LED lights as each channel was selected) is an enjoyable past time for me. I usually listen as I am drivingsome where or some times as I am going to sleep. Right now I monitor mostlyusing a Uniden Bearcat BC-245XLT TrunkTracker II that I take with me everywhere.

I occasionally use and collect several Bearcat 250 VHF/UHF scanning monitors.
