WA Radio Scanner Users' Group

Hi Grant and all. Good to see you back on board Grant. I was just thinking this afternoon I hadn't heard from you in a while.

I just clicked on the link for Trunksniffer Grant posted and it has obviously got too bg for the free hosting site it was on. The Trunk Sniffer now has a new URL at http ...

I'm in no position to speak about the way these networks are set up because I have nothing to do with them. What I can comment on though is how a number of Government Agencies in NSW have just spent years changing all of their communications to One band. The SES is one that I have been involved in ...

Essentially the stickers are just that. A sticker. What makes the sticker special is the fact that it has a tuned antenna running in it made from a metal similar to that on the back windscreen for the demister. In fact there are some covert cars around that use exactly this for an antenna (The ...

I've just been having a think about this antenna and how to get an adapter and I reckon you could be on the right track making your own.

Here's why. The antenna on the scaner is single pole only. i.e. unlike most scanners that have say a BNC connector on top, where the centre pin of the BNC is the ...

The Commodores are very similar today. I'm not sure if they provide the audio path since I haven't done a phone in a Commodore for a long time, but they certainly provide the power. It's up on the passenger side. If you slide your hand up the body side of the glovebox you'll feel a small connector ...

Hi Zebedee,

I actually recognised it as an old post when I read it but though it was worth replying to anyway as installations are commonly something that many people undertake at home. Realistically they are not hard, but in my opinion they do require a little nouse, and should be done properly ...

Hi All,

Just a quick update to say I have spoken to the Uniden distributor today and they still don't have a release date for the scanner and have not received any stocks as yet. The best time frame they have for a release is early December. We are still waiting on possible further details to come ...

I'm thinking I will need to save up for a while myself. Although I did throw a lot of money into the buisness to support the other two partners a while ago so maybe the business will have to buy me one to help pay me back

Some of the radios we have are just chock full of features. There are also lower versions than this (1, 2, 4 channel jobs) but we find that most people in Australia (myself included), like a big feature packed and big channel radio.

For those looking for a great UHF CB made by Motorola and based on ...

This is a bit of a long post as I have found some information on both the old Tetra system and the new WA Police Trunked system to be installed.

First up the Tetra system. My nderstanding is that two major things happened. I'm not sure of the order of events though. One event was the Police ...

Hi Doug,

Your playing with fire a bit if you don't want to make any holes. One of the biggest things I need customers to know is that whatever goes into their car needs to be done so that it remains in place and in a safe place in the event of a crash. This means keeping objects out of the way of ...

Hi All,

I'm Brian from Emcom Communications and a new member here. I have been floating around the different topics answering questions here and there this morning and came across this one.

I should point out I am not on the group to push my business. Where you choose to do business is up to you ...

If people are having problems sourcing antennas I can hopefully help out. We stock antennas from handhelds to mobiles to base stations.

We carry a number of different branded antennas from RFI, Laser Antenna and Panorama as well as antennas and adapters for many commercial handhelds.

If you are ...

If your still waiting for that Digital Scanner Tyson hang tight. The Aussie version of the digital scanner is due for release any day now. I have further details here.

Hi JG-103. I just had a look at the UBC-57 antenna in a Uniden picture and your right it is a bit of a pain in the butt.

Are you after a new antenna for the radio because the old one is lost or broken or stolen or otherwise indisposed? Or are you after an adapter that screws into the top of the ...
