No new models from them for while in the scanner arena.

The website has no scanners on the front page any more.

They seemed to have branched in another direction.

Any one know any more about what's up.



It reflects the current market - as in not much call for scanners now in the
UK. Let's face it, people only bought them to listen to police, phones and
PMR. Now a lot of it has gone digital and the only real enthusiasts are
left, they only form a small percentage of the market. So companies have
decided not to flog a dead horse so to speak. There is no point in bringing
out new models when there is no real demand for current models. Sales have
fallen consistently.
That's about it. If anyone else thinks differently then fine. Try selling
a scanner now, people ask "what can I listen to" and the reply is a very
short one! Not much.
We have to face facts and companies have, so that's why you're no longer
seeing any new models!
It's a shame really. Scanning has gone the same way as CB radio in the UK.
