New equipment/technology
 
I used to listen to scanners maybe 25-30 years ago and thought I might get
back into it. Looks like things have changes a bit since then-- scanners
these days seem to be computers with speakers more than radios!

Anyone got a favorite link or article to help an old dog get back up to
speed so I know what to buy....

TIA

Where do you live, what do you want to listen to? Makes a difference in what
you need. Radio Reference page can some times be a hell of a lot of help in
this area.
