Yeah, england rather
You can't get into the police stuff, they're on a system called TETRA
I think there are ways to hack your way in but it would take some serious doing
with amateur radio you're looking to listen to frequencies from all over the world
so right now I'm starting small trying to listen to my local stuff
then branch
Yeah, it's probably not even worth.
It's a really fun thing to get into
I might look into all that a bit more actually
Yeah
I can give you the cheap chink shit to buy if you want

Don't bother with a scanner like me, I got it because it was cool looking
modern radios you can program via usb
gwan
with software
hold on
I got mine from my Grandad, he's probably still got it
it was similar to yours, but not by Realistic I think..
That the one on Amazon for the same price as GB/Ali etc?
Yeah, it is
the antenna in the box is nicknamed the rubby ducky because it's useless
so you get all that and you can program in every frequency locally easily via open source software
>Prime
Ohhh yesss
there are hacks for the baofeng to increase its range
and lots you can do with it
I had a handheld one too, of course when I had it I was probably like 5 or so therefore I'd just use it for FM
>330+ new messages
the HAM stuff is on FM but imagine pgoing beyond the pish music channels and hearing the stuff BEYOND
that's what this allows you to do
Fucking hell, I just thought it was a normal radio
nope
Well, now I know of course haha
Sounds pretty sweet
Yeah I'm having fun learning all this
I'm new to it too
but sitting here scanning through supermarket walkie talkies is fun
Sounds like a nice little project, I'm going to Prime it all
