This could have gone in another forum but I thought it would be handy to us outdoor growers. Or anyone for that matter. Mods feel free to move it need be.

They got some pretty cool scanners now days. This new technology will let you pick up any radio transmission within a block or two of the scanner. with a handheld you cab take it anywhere.

So if a the pigs were next door or out in front of your house this radio would pick up the radio talk intantly. They also have a warning light feature. You can plug in a red light to the unit and turn the volume down. When you see the red light on and flashing that is telling you someone is outside your house talking on any radio. Or in the woods you can hear if anything is going on around you. Many many uses I can think of.

I just thought this was really cool. Not only for growers but for family saftey as well. It would be nice to know whats going on outside your own front door.

Close Call™ RF Capture Technology - Instantly detects and tunes to nearby transmissions with no additional programming.
Close Call Do-Not-Disturb - Checks for Close Call activity in between channel
reception so active channels are not interrupted.
Close Call Temporary Storee - Temporarily stores and scans the last 10 Close Call hits so that you can continue to monitor activity on those frequencies, even after you are out of Close Call detection range.

Hello 5150-
Does this work on digital transmissions? I live near Yosemite Ntl Park, i have 2 scanners, 1 base unit, and 1 handheld unit. I have the local police/fire/weather/and i had the National Park Service (law enforcement) frequency until they went digital. Now i hear nothing from them.......pisses me off!
Just cuious if it works on digital signals.

Purchase the Uniden BCD396T if your area has the new Digital System or is going to be converting to Digital soon.[/FONT][/FONT]​


You just have to pay about 200$ more bucks to get digital. The radio shack models have the red light option.

The Radio Shack models it is called

"Signal Stalker"

Works the same way but has an different range. Longer I think. You can also hook these up to a GPS and open a whole new world.

I have one. I have it tuned to the police in the areas of my grow. When I am around, going in or out of the patch I have it with an earpiece. Just for reports of suspicious activity. Like someone already said, if your already under surveillance then your probably fucked anyway.
