The first day after programing my scan lists, the first transmission I heard involved an expired car registration stop involving a friend of mine; what are the odds of that happening?One nice aspect I really like is the ability to program custom flashing colors which identify who is broadcasting without your having to read the screen--a very cool feature which I found to be downplayed by both Whistler and Amazons' descriptives

The audio recording option is a great feature

One futuristic feature this radio scanner has is the ability to (by sub menus) route out the IF from the radio receiver if an external demodulator is needed for future radio coding schemes.
