My husband called me as he was leaving to go snowmachining and saw a large number of police heading up the mountain to the road behind us. EMS parked at the bottom of the mountain.
Tried finding a police scanner app to see if I could hear anything, but apps are crap.
I texted another neighbor who’s retired firefighter, but they didn’t have a scanner either.
Their son is current firefighter and gave us an update - gunshot inside a residence.
But this makes me realize that even though we have been looking at getting a scanner for a while, we haven’t been looking diligently.
Hoping someone here can recommend a solid unit?
When I was active in Gen. Aviation I used Uniden - was really good andcovered any cat. of channel - but that was a long time ago.
However Uniden still is a fave (state versions apply)

I'm re-upping mine, for fire/LE/EMS... in the mean time I use broadcastify - the guy who runs it knows about scanners..
