I used to love listening to scanners as a kid growing up in Phoenix. I would listen to aircraft as well, but since Phoenix went digital, I cannot figure it out. I spent $700 on a digital radio only to sell it a couple years later, cause I could not figure out how to get it to work. I even had the place I bought it from program, but I could not understand the transmissions. It sounded like it was garbled. I also didn’t know how to follow a call. I used to be really simple. They had a channel chase as they called it, which was channel one and then all the precincts had their own channel when emergency traffic came out let’s say for the seventh precinct they would switch to channel one and they would work the traffic on channel one and you could hear all sides of the Conversation, if you have any knowledge on how I could do this again I’d be happy to pay for your time. Thank you.

Sounds like encryption. If you got a digital scanner that does p25 phase one and two, and you still hear garbled mess… it’s encryption, but there’s plenty of other things to listen too, Look up radioreference.com and put in your county. It will show all the local frequency you can put into your scanner

Hello from Phoenix, Arizona. This is some cool stuff I love gadgets. I don’t have my ham license. I’ve been looking at GRMS lately very powerful 50 W radios that you can put in your car. They work on the repeater system and you don’t have to take a test. You need a license but it’s a 10 year license for $35 coverage your whole family. I’m sure you know all about it, anyway, looking forward to more videos
