Joe Curtis returns to the podcast this week to share how he uses multiple scanner radios. We also discuss a recent national event that happened outside his door. What You Need To Know Joe uses a Unication G4 to listen to public safety He also uses a SDS 100 as his go-to scanner The SDS100 makes a great do-all scanner since it covers 25Mhz to 1.3Ghz The SDS also supports analog, P25, and multiple trunking modes. One of the benefits of having multiple radios is the ability to be flexible and to beable to keep an ear on events unfolding in real-time and not missing that transmissions. There is nothing wrong with only owning one scanner, but once you put that radio in the scan, the chances of missing a conversation or transmission or something urgent that goes out over another frequency increases, especially when that scanner stops on another transmission. Scanner Radio is a hobby, and that’s what we all should treat it as. If you have fun listening to different things, go with the flow. I do a lot of searching for new frequencies because you can find interesting stuff out there if you search for frequencies. Many people have old scanners that are just sitting collecting dust but take it out because some of those older scanners will still serve a purpose even in this day and age where a lot of stuff is digital. The ability to have one radio is excellent, but once you start adding or multiplying your enjoyment of the hobbies, it becomes much more enjoyable.   ==================================== ?
