I am looking to buy a scanner to put in my truck. I would like one to have the following features:

-Metro 800 Mhz
-have at least 500-1000 channels
-trunk tracking
-Alphanumeric display

any suggestions?

also, where do you guys buy your scanner equipment from?

Thanks

Hello Mike,

You may want to look at this site http://www.usascan.com/files/bc898T.html
You can't really go wrong with Uniden.
Also check out Ebay
http://electronics.listings.ebay.com/Ra ... ngItemList
You can get great deals.
The scanners to look out for(That i think are worth your money)
The BC898T(the one in the first link)
The BCT8(isn't has much as the BC898T,but also has Trunktracker)
The BC3250C(doesn't have Trunktracking,but it's a all around good scanner for the money)

Well I don't knwo much about scanners,but I'm reading and learning more and more as we speak,I hope i did some help for you.
Take care Mike,and good luck with you scanner shopping.
