Hmmm Santronic Corp, that was a long time ago.

Im pushing MPT1327 right now with limited success but the answer is not "no" so far.
The Home Patrol scanner has been very successful in the USA and I am thinking about this also. Im not sure how much you know about this but it is intended to be a location based scanning product with very simple touch screen operation. Simply enter your post code to set your location. Then choose what you want to listen too by the categories listed.

This revolves around a public frequency database located at http://www.radioreference.com If we want it for NZ we would need to build up this data. http://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?coid=165

Any thoughts?

Hi Mike,

Mark used to be the Service Manager at Santronics prior to it becoming Uniden NZ. At one stage he held the General Manager Uniden NZ or it's equivalent. Not sure exactly his role these days as I've left the radio industry.

Mark called for submissions prior to the development of the popular T8, many members of the NZScanners group, which effectively became this new group, submitted contributions.

We all have off days and after having occasional contact with Mark over many years, I think it's pretty safe to assume he's seen it as a passionate call to arms and subsequent passionate reaction to your wish that Uniden should stay in the NZ Scanners market.

As for the rest of us, chin up, tomorrow is another day. Lets all have a great 2011.

Regards,

Neill.
