Question, So with the huge price difference between a normal trunked radio scanner and a Digital Trunked Radio Scanner are you really getting your monies worth? It's not like Fire and Police in this area are 100 % Digital. I can't imagine that what is Digital in this area is so exciting to listen to. My feeling is that a lot of people just want the newest toys.
In this area, a digital scanner doesn't get you much. However, the 396/996XT does have some nifty features. Namely, it can be programed with *ALL* of the KC talkgroup IDs - unlike the older models.
It is nice to have a digital scanner if you travel outside the state. More and more agencies are converting to digital P25.
