NO YOU FOOLS CAN YOU READ wa radio scanner user`s group Providing a voice for responsible scanner users in Western Australia did you learn how to read as a child you FOOL Uhh, what seems to be your problem? Just because it's the WA scanner users group, it doesn't mean that people from other states ...

Not sure exactly what they are. All I know is that there was a traffic car doing about 85km/h up Wanneroo road the other day, so I thought "well, if he can do it, so can I" I followed him in the right lane travelling at the same speed for about 5-6km before they turned off. I highly doubt ...

Sounds like a pager to me. They transmit constantly across a large amount of frequences all within a similar band. (This explains the break on one frequency, as the system shifts to another and back again). The strange data noise you are hearing is POCSAG (do a google search) and it transmits data t...

I took my digital camera, was going to take a few happy snaps of all the scanner/amateur geeks but I left it in the car and couldn't be bothered going back to get it.... rofl

Lucky the weather turned out nice and it was great to see the group of people there and meet a few new faces

See ya'll at the meet

Yep, I agree. It's unfortunate that it's taken someone's life due to teenage stupidity, and I won't dismiss the fact that we were probably all stupid in our teen years either, but it just depends on how far you take it before you realise you are just being a complete idiot. I do feel sorry for him b...

Where do you live Pty?

I hear you meg

I'd also love to attend, but it does depend on my roster, which I have not got yet. Should know within a couple of days :) I'm 21 btw... Sounds like most of us are within a similar age group, and there's nothing wrong with any youngsters or oldies turning up. It's irrelevent to the sole purpose we a...

Yeah, if your scanner covers that range, program it straight in. The decimal goes after the first digit. Eg. if the frequency was 7150khz then put in 7.150mhz into your scanner. May I advise you to also get your self a long piece of insulated single strand wire (1-2mm is OK) wire and string it up be...

My advice to you is to go ahead with the CB purchase, get yourself familiar with talking on the airwaves, meet a few people, meet a few assholes and have a bit of fun (but don't join the assholes and become one). Once you are happy with your antenna and CB setup, if you start taking further interest...

That's exactly what crossed my mind, which is part of the reason I was asking "Even if it was ducting, why would it be on a CB frequency?"

Why would the police be on a CB channel?

That still doesn't really explain why he heard it on a CB channel though...
