A fully revised edition of the bestselling guide to owning and using a scanner. Fully illustrated with photographs of the latest equipment and accessories, and tables of UK frequencies and call signs.
Radio basics and aerial principles do not change much, but the equipment and the frequencies are ever-changing, hence this comprehensive updating: * Up-to-date frequency listings * Latest digital technologies * Digital mobile radio * PCs (home, laptop, palm) with radio receivers * Shareware/freeware software for monitoring and decoding * 'radar-style' displays on palmtop computers This new edition reflects the fast-changing nature of radio communications and the new generation of equipment used to tune into all matter of two-way radio communications. It includes the latest generation of handheld scanners with 'automatic capture' facilities, which tune into (and then store the frequencies by memory) signals from nearby two-way radio users. Fully illustrated with photographs of the latest equipment and accessories, and tables of UK frequencies and call signs.
