got an old pro 2050 scanner on ebay for $40. trunk scanner and, with
the help of the group here (thanks alex clayton and john szalay), set
it up in about 2 minutes...working great...1st trunk scanner...thank
goodness the county is cheap and hasnt upgraded its system

i run with the local ambulance crew so like to keep an eye on the
folks when i'm not on duty

Thats great,

and just be glad that your area hasn't the idiots in charge , that we got.
they went to a P-25 digital system and all medical talkgroups have
been encrypted, so no scanners work ..big whoop...
(did,nt listen to the medical before the change so no big thing for
me,) but the whole concept of going to a common system for the metro
area was to insure that all services could work and communicate.that just
went out the window. no-one can talk to medical and medical can't talk to
fire or police . stupid
anyway, glad the 2050 is working for you..
