I live in an apartment and am allowed NOTHING (like an antenna) come out of
my place. Also, I live in the center of San Diego CA so I'm only looking for
a 5-6 mile range.

Looking for your opinion and do I need an antenna and what kind?

Thanks,

You can get the PRO-197 for $399.00 at Radio Shack that will easily
handle SD County trunked systems. Radio Shack sells a small mobile
magmount that I have been using in my apartment near a window.

The antenna that comes with the radio should work for close by monitoring.

You can also shop Ham Radio Outlet for Uniden Scanners in SD, you
should check out the latest PSR-600 or BCD996XT.

If you can buy local it is best because if you have a problem with the
product you can take it back easily for a replacement or warranty
repair. I'm right now fighting a mail order electronic firm because they
sent me the wrong part. It has been going on for 3 weeks with no
resolution.

This store might sell scanners in Vista, give them a call:
