Hi all, just found this site and joined today! A little bit about me - married, in own retail business, interested in all radio mostly marine VHF, HF, APRS- AIS and a bit of Aircraft radio on the side.
Have a couple of scanners both Uniden I love one thats the UBC900XL that I have had for years & years and my new BCD396T which I am trying to love... but its hard work!! I took it to the Melbourne airshow at Avlon (close to home) this year and managed to have a great day listening to the towers & aircraft. I am into computers, not a programer (whish I was but not enough time) but have a good understanding of better than basic, would love to combine scanning and computers. ( Have just discovered ProScanner recently)

I use programes such as UI-View, AGWTracker, ProScanner, Shipplotter, Weather Display and a few others.. but I am not an amature radio operator

Enough about me Hi to all

Cheers,


Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Welcome to the forums. if you need any help with frequencies or anything else please do not hesitate to ask the 396T is a great scanner when you get the hang of it. i found it difficult to go from a BCT9 to a 996T as i found there are so many things you have to do to program them. after which it is a breeze. like i said if you need a hand with anything please do not hesitate to ask

just a note for you aswell

the 396D is capable of listening to the MMR which is currently being used by the MFB and Ambulance Victoria (Metro) if you want to listen to these services im sure we can find some data for you to put into your scanner

Regard Phil
