Welcome to the first in a series of classes that we are calling "Scanner Radio University".

Over the next several weeks and months, we will be covering topics that will not only be geared towards those just entering the hobby, but topics that maybe you needed to overlook because a lot of today scanners just work out of the box or with computer assisted programming.

This week, we will cover the basics of what scanner radio is, who uses them, where to buy one, and where to get help.
