I'm beginning to wonder if Amazon is ever gonna ship it. At least if I'm not
happy with it, I can return it within 30 days.

Well, I went ahead and cancelled it. No sense in getting a digital scanner if everything is encrypted.
I did, however, order another one. This one is analog and and pretty much does what I want it to do.
It is a Uniden BC125AT. Do a google search for the details, and let me know what you think. Amazon has it on sale for under $100.

Not sure what you want it to do, this is very similar to the 2 handheld scanners I have, so if you are looking to listen to NASCAR, some local businesses, weather, aircraft, etc, this should work.
send a PM if you have more questions.

Thanks, V. T......You hit the nail on the head. That's exactly what I want to do.....Maybe we should start a "scanners" club.
