Folks,

I am relatively new to scanners, so please bear with me. I am interested in
purchasing a scanner for use primarily in the car while highway driving in
California (especially I-5, I-80, I-10, and I-15). I would like to be able
to identify police cars.

I am also interested in using it in my home (I live in LA) to monitor police
activity in the neighborhood. I understand scanners are useful for this
task.

In particular I'm looking at the Uniden BCT8. Is this a useful scanner for
my needs? How effective are scanners in alerting the driver to highway
patrol cars while driving?

Would the BCT* scan the frequencies that I need. I notice that it doesn't
cover digital, but I'm not sure if that is a problem or not.

Any info is appreciated.



Regards



Greg

I am suprised that no one asked this guy why he has such a strong need to
know there the police are located?????
