I am completely new to this but someone left a scanner in my car. It isnt programmed but when I was kid I remember my dad having one that was pretty cool to listen too. Does anyone have any info on how to program one. It is more difficult than I thought!!
Police Scanners...
- Thread starter INEEDMONEY
- Start date
Cute but I actually have wanted one for awhile but not willing to cough up the cash. Any help?? Anyone??
I have one and it is programmed to 3 police depts and a few fire depts.
Here is the trick.
In order to make it work you have to buy the exact programming chips to the police or fire dept you want to listen to.
The chips are available on the internet. Just call the company that makes the scanner and they will tell you what you have to do.
It will drive you kinda crazy though if you keep it on for any length of time. Also they use codes for their calls that you will have no idea what they are talking about.

go up to the PD that you are wanting to chime in to. They will give you the 10 codes and the scanner freq.
It is pretty neat... and plus you can hear the names of the people getting pulled over. I have lost my charger for mine somewhere.... and I can't find it.
If that is interesting to ya... do a ride a long w/ a cop

If they ask you why you want a scanner, just
tell them you are interested in drug interdiction.
:SIB
not sure about all locations but the police calls here in ontario cannot be scanned due to scrambling or something like that
I believe I have a Radio Shack scanner. Look up the user manual online and it should be able to tell u. If mine had batteries in it I could turn it on and tell you... but its been so long...
I remember I had problems putting frequencies in it. but it was a breeze when I had the user manual.
check this out... Scroll down to the guy that is typing in all caps... he should help ya.

I dont think your being too helpful.
Get some damn batterys, plug in yours, and download the codes to the guy. :shrug:
Look up the user manual . Yeh from 1998 ?
Go to the police dept :shrug: your going to get the guy arrested. With a name like ineedmoney he already has enough desperation in his life.
Geez Louise.
HAA.... I did a ride along for an internship a couple years ago and the cop gave me a 10 code sheet.... and I looked for the scanner earlier... and I can't find it. Its pretty fun, being in a college town, to turn the scanner on one friday or saturday night and hear all the things going on
Hey justin I found the user manual thanks! I am tinkering with it now. I graduated from AU in 06. Definitely some funny chit going on on a friday night.
Hey scott your a funny guy. I m 27 and carry a bankroll that could choke a hippo! I think cruising other peoples posts to talk chit shows how desperate you are! Have fun bashing me I am on my way to the bar to get some pussy, something I am sure you haven't seen in a really, really long time judging by all your posts here!:scared :scared

Listen Ineedmoneydesperately
Graduating from AU explains alot. Too bad they play the National Champs Georgia this year :142smilie :142smilie
I would be carefull around agents woman with that bankroll you supposedly got. Especially if choking is involved. He knows karate you know. And he has Mr Mel.
That bankroll is probably a few one dollars rolled up with cardboard. Its a old trick to make people think you can actaully afford to pay for a round of drinks. I bet you put a couple of rolled up socks in your underwear too, giving you that ineedmoney bulge affect. Hope it works for you.
Hope you tie on a good one. I get pussy all the time. Well as much as a married man can stand.
Geez I thought you were going to thank me.
Thats what I get for trying to be helpfull.
Oh dont, worry I am from and living in Athens.Go Dawgs!! Does that mean I might get lucky and see your wife out 2nite? Btw Georgia was my back up school. You mean thank you for being a smart ass?? Go butt in on someones elses business. And dont worry I ll have your wife home in time to cook you breakfast might even give her a couple of bucks of my bank roll to buy you some IHOP.

You know ineedmoney.
If you had not come back in here, like you said you were going out to a bar, I would have some sliver of respect for you. But 40 minutes later your back in here posting. I think the only thing your hands are going to be in tonight are that fawking scanner .
Now I can see that what you say is not what you do. You got too much time on your hands dude.
Listen - take that avatar down of Bush and Cheney its fawking embarressing.
