I wasn't go to respond to the bait, but it seems like a bitof fun for us "no-lifers"! Some of us "have" :D to listen to scanners for work in the media. Terrible shame to get paid for a hobby eh?

Actually, I disagree. If that knob has a problem with a gun being fired, let him go away. The gun signature may represent someone using it at a firing range, or as a sport.
