Well, I had been talking about taking my existing mobile police scanner and installing it into my empty spot in my ‘Stang’s dashboard; the only thing I would have had to do is find a DIN sleeve, custom shape something to fill in the space that this one didn’t fill and then also try to make it look nice… not hard right? Fuck that noise, this weekend I found a new scanner that was made to fit into a dashboard and I ended up buying that and installing it in my dash. I bought the Radio Shack Pro-2055 mobile scanner.
When I bought the new scanner, I didn’t know, but it was a clone of my new handheld scanner I had bought almost a year ago, the Pro-97. I know if you’re a scanner nerd you’re probably wondering why that one isn’t on my scanner page, well I’m also rather lazy, especially with the whole webpage stuff. Anyway, as I said, it’s a clone of my handheld which made programming it extremely easy because all I had to do was plug a wire into both scanners and it uploaded all the programmed frequencies from the handheld to the new mobile.
