could one of the 500 dollar scanners help me run from the cops??
WHO GIVES A DAM ABOUT THE TRAIN !!
Lance i might have missed this, but does the scanner also do marine for Great lakes ship spotting…?
can you hear phone conversation ?
I just bought one of these after watching this video. A 170$ expense. Unfortunately i am only able to receive the weather and an airport. I am unable to hear The Police and other emergency officials . I may hold on to this because i am a railfan however there are no trains around me so right now it is an expensive paperweight.
great video!
@geedunk13 yes i have one
hey can you tell me the code for Montreal Maine & Atlantic
@LanceCampeau hey how can i get police and cordless phones on this
AWESOME video and sunglasses indeed. Thanks for that. Greets from germany
Hey Lance my scanner pro 84 is having some problems it will not pick up anything outside of a mile with an after market antenna, do you have any idea what might be going on with this thing.
Gotta get that guide, the latest version is sold out sadly.
@geedunk13 It’s people like you that make it hard for us honest scanner listeners. A lot of agenices are switching to encrypted communications because of attitudes like yours.
@LonesomeTroubadour
if they all do that I’m sure they will come out with a scanner that can listen in
How much was the schedule
can i get that in uk
Mobile phones are publicly aired frequencies where court warrants aren’t required for eavesdropping. The railroads being tapped by anyone is a good example. Is their a guide that lists local mobile phone frequencies. What fun it would be to listen to the private conversations of friends, family, and neighbors legally!
its like a copy of the uniden radio?

Great video lance it helped me out alot since i’m trying to figure out the cheapest ways to do so. Is there a Canadian Trackside Guide 2011 out? also how much does it cost in CAD? thanks.
Lance another question is how far can an antenna like that one that came with it reach? how many KM’s away? also the Canadian Trackside Guide 2011 is sold out, i can’t find where to buy it 🙁
@DieselSmoke92
The original antenna is pretty good… but its designed for the 450 Mhz range so its performance is limited at 160-161 Mhz… I often strategically position myself in areas that are in between or closer to transmission points to improve reception.
@LanceCampeau Yeah that would make sence. Hey i posted other comments to it would be nice if i could get reply’s so i can figure out what the hell im going to do lol.
Hey I have that same one but all emer. Services changed to digital in my area, any scanners that are digital?

i was just imagining fart noises for the rest of it after he started scanning
@vonzigle Exactly, as well as being powerful enough to hide his power from the other glasses clad scanner of lesser power. makes sense to me, great Movie!!!!!!!!
boom headshot 50+
Ive seen ths exploding head clip for…well…ever, and literally just today i know what its from. Thanks YouTube!
This movie is ripe for a remake (but only if done well). I am not knocking the original….it’s an all time classic! I’d just like to see it remade, preferably with some decent/well known actors/nice budget.
hahah sick
Alright… I’m gonna suck yer brains out…
Hey I tried this while standing on a down power line,..it works.
theee was supposed to be a remake but I think it is cancelled
fake and gay.
@justcallmemrmetal Michael Ironside was pretending to be just a regular person. Louis Del Grande (the guy in glasses) was supposed to be doing the scanning, but ended up having his brains blown out by a much more powerful scanner.
@gjc82071 What’s wrong with the actors in the original? Michael Ironside was in many movies since this one. Remember Starship Troopers? “Do you wanna live forever?”
@phillydisco What? Oh! I get it……..There is NOTHING wrong with the original/actors. Ironside was awesome! I only mean that if they did a remake, IMO they would need good/name actors in the remake too. I did not imply that the original actors sucked or anything. They were perfect. I really like Patric Patrick McGoohan (the doctor). He played Edward the Long Shanks in “Braveheart” & also the MI6 spy in “Ice Station Zerba” (awesome film!!!)
David Cronenenberg is God.
man that ending was fucked
@phillydisco My bad! McGoohan also played the title character in the 60s TV show The Prisoner. If they remake this thing today, it’ll have Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez as Scanners, running from some other teeny bopper scanners.
Ok gentlemen, so I want you to think of a number from 0 to 1, but I must warn you all, severe diarrhea may occur. If this occurs we do not have toilets. A show of hands for volunteers..
CRONENEBURG HAS A ALIEN MIND.THIS ONE DID IT FOR ME.THE FLY,JUST TORE ME UP,AND IT WAS SO WEIRD BECAUSE IT CAME OUT DURING THAT WHOLE ”AIDS OUTBREAK.CRONENBERG IS ALWAYS PUSHING IT TO ANOTHER LEVEL.I’M GONNA GET ALL HIS STUFF.HA,HA.WELL.WHATEVER IS AVAILABLE.
Pretty bloody for a trailer in 1981.
Funny how things scare you when you’re a kid, not so much now when you’re an adult. This was one of those films, an head explosion in the 80’s was huge special events!
@FeedMoi
I have the movie on my channel if interested…
LOL
I used to look for machokingwwf’s comment, but then I took an look at the date.
