    hi folks am after a scanner, does anyone know where i can buy one in a shop in Ireland..

    i would like the close call feature, and also to be able to connect it to the pc
    , also with a chimney mounted discone aerial..also to be able to connect to pc and get satellite weather stuff on 137mhz..

    can anyone recommend a full featured one with freqs up to 1300mhz? with bnc aerial connector..

    I've seen them in electrical stores that sell T.V.'s, radios etc. For something more advanced I'd say you'd have to do a bit of Googleing (if there is such a word).
