I reckon someone should pen a book on scanning and it's lingo for dummies.They'd make fortune!

Doogues71 you could be onto something there but since its your idea I feel as tho anyone who does take up the idea should credit you for the idea and reward you financelly. Better still since it is your idea is there any cahnce you could do it in your spare time. I am sure memebers of this forum will help come up with things that could be published.

People like me who know nothing about radio's

I just know when I push the button I can talk and when I enter some numbers into my scanner I hear other people talk.

By the way I am drunk in Bali at the moment so it probably makes no sense at all............

It makes alot of sense there Dazla. I would buy it aswell in the book you could also add scanner mods which can be found online. I am sure I have posted a few of my topics under the weather.

So feel free to contact them and let them know that we want a book done for us here in Australia.

Nice work on that research Doogues

What i meant here was that it'd be wise to ask yourself this before investing a whole lot of time and effort (not even talkin bout money yet).

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that user "Connor" and user "MadMikey" aren't friendly members of this forum? Funny how ppls personalities come out eventually, and hence other helpful forum members then go on to disregard any input these losers make... Each to their own I guess, but maybe there should be an IQ test to join!

hmm, concidering i put the idea forward and was some of the driving force behind the new domain name, didn't see you donating towards the upkeep of this forum???

I have a veiw on one topic that is the republishing of information, we are not supposed to republish full articles from other sources, so why allow them for this topic (road alert) and do other peoples jobs for them???
It makes sence to me to wait in here to have someone republish something that you can get long before it reaches this forum.

I haven't seen anyone complain about any other posts i've made, so what if i'm oppionated on one topic...

Built a bridge and get over yourself.
