<div>All three are a learning curve but there are great people out there with great ideas and support.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Uniden are sneaky with their unit as you have to buy the DMR and PROVOICE upgrades on top of the scanner.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The website Radio Reference is way out of date with New Zealand changes but they do you get you started.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Both Uniden and Whistler rely on the site for those in the States and Canada with up to date files that assist with loading</div>
<div>the scanners for their listening pleasure... In fact for a fee the retailers selling the scanner will program for your zip code.</div>
<div>All well until a site adds a new RF channel and the punters loose the ability to track a talk group as it hits the new RF channel.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have followed the blogs with interest and do they squeal like hell when that happens leaving bad feed back etc.</div>
