scanner in Spider-Man 3?
 

Anyone catch the model number of the scanner Peter Parker / Spider-Man
had in Spider-Man 3? I caught the Realistic logo and it had 16 lights
representing each channel and the active channel would light up. It
looked like something from the 80s and I doubt it'd be able to track
NYPD's current system.

Patrolman, but don't know if there is an actual model # ever visible...

That's a crystal controlled scanner, definitely not the 1980s
state-of-the-art.

so is it from the 70s? could it monitor NYPD's current system?

It cannot negotiate trunk systems. It would work well here in L.A.
County.

I doubt that... I do recall Patrolman, but don't ever recall seeing an
actual model #. I'll have a look this coming weekend, if I remember to...

No, looked a LOT closer to this. I'm not 100% positive, but I'm going to
say this was the unit.

In light of this little search, I stumbled upon a VAST WEALTH of Operators
and Service Manuals for scanners of all types. Might want to check it out!

lot of which a now dead... Scavenge what you can still get access to I
guess...
