Hi Jeff,
Do you know if western and the state police are using the same digital
modes?
I talked to Uniden yesterday and they said that they are coming out with the
BC250D handheld and the 785D desktop-mobile scanners by the end of the year.
I was refered to a web site,
http://www.strongsignals.net/access/news/news.cgi?type=single§ion=radio&entr
y=597
for more info.
