to listen

Not all areas have this yet.But just a helpful tool when you hear an
address on your scanner type it into Google maps and click on street
view tab. This lets you see the front view of the house!

in AZ incident Folder

Added this folder in links if you have any add them, Or send them to
me! I'll add em!

I know I'm wishing here but, I'll ask anyway.... Is there any software
to program these scanners? Radio Shack PRO 2066 or Radio Shack Pro 2050

TETRA technology is making a second push into  the North American market
after a failed attempt about eight years ago. Several  groups of U.S.
mission-critical communications users are showing interest in  TETRA technology,
a trunked
radio standard developed in Europe that has been  blocked from deployment in
the United States because of intellectual property  rights (IPR).

The RF Systems SP-1 allows two shortwave receivers to be connected to
one antenna without interaction and with minimal signal loss. A very
high degree of isolation (over 30 dB) between both receivers ensures
that each receiver can be tuned and operated as if it were connected
to its own antenna.

Going to try this for 2 scanners on 1 antenna any comments?

I noticed that there were two posts on amplifiers. Just a
cautionary note to those considering using an amp...
Amplifiers add noise, even the best of them, so you will hear
signals you didn't before and also a lot of other crud you don't
want. Keep the cable from the amplifier to the receiver (scanner)
as short as possible and use the best cable you can find.

If you have an adjustable amplifier then be aware of of the adjusting
component going bad on you. There might be noisy spots and when you
adjust levels you will have spikes in levels.

Lastly don't be afraid to remove the amplifier if you can normally
receive all the signals you usually listen to and only use it when
you are reaching for those fringe area transmissions!

Al

Can't say how good it will work for you, but a boost is always welcome.
I use these products...

One on my 150Mhz+ antenna, and one on my 450Mhz+ antenna. They gave me

Fire destroys new church; check out video, photos

By Greg Marano
Poughkeepsie Journal

WAPPINGERS FALLS — An early morning fire today destroyed a church that was under construction in the village.

The fire at the Bethel Missionary Baptist Church, on Route 9D on the corner of Prospect Street, was reported at 5:30 a.m.

Wappingers Falls Fire Chief Gary Rogers said the fire was under control within the hour. No injuries were reported.

“As soon as we pulled up, it was fully involved,” Rogers said.

An immediate cause was not known, but Rogers said an arson investigation will be conducted.

Nelly Courtwright lives three houses away from the church and was awoken by the sirens.

“I heard all the noise, and I looked out the window, and, ‘Oh my god, the church is on fire.' ”

Wappingers Falls Mayor Matthew Alexander also lives near the church, and first saw the fire through his kitchen window.

“I could see the flames; they were over 100 feet high,” he said.

The Rev. Edward Hunt, pastor at the church, said construction on the new church had begun in fall 2007 and the church was expected to open in October. He said about 500 parishioners belong to the church.

The current church, across the street from the fire, sustained some damage to the side that faces the new site.

Even as firefighters continued to battle the flames, the congregation held its Sunday morning service as scheduled.

“I’m ready to have service,” Hunt said. “We’re not stopping anything ... We’re going to rebuild.”

Jesse Stevens, also a minister at the church, said he and other parishioners found inspiration in a rainbow that was visible through the mist of the stream coming from a fire hose. They compared it to the rainbow God sent as a covenant after the Old Testament flood.

“You can’t burn down God,” he said. “The people of God, we will worship in the parking lot.

“We are going forward in love.”

Teams from the New Hamburg, Hughsonville, Rombout and Village of Fishkill fire departments responded to the scene, with the New Hackensack and Arlington fire departments on standby.

Three people died when a UW Hospital Med Flight helicopter crashed late
Saturday night near La Crosse, La Crosse County Sheriff Steve Helgeson
confirmed.

The helicopter crashed shortly after it took off at 10:30 p.m. and was
found
about 8:45 a.m. today off Keil Coulee Road in the town of Medary by
firefighters searching on foot.
A doctor, nurse and pilot were on the helicopter when it left Gundersen

Lutheran Medical Center about 10:30 p.m., according to UW Hospital
spokesman
Ron Gilmore said. Communications were heard from the crew shortly after
takeoff but not after that, he said.

The crew transported a patient from UW Hospital to Gundersen Lutheran

Saturday evening and was traveling back to UW Hospital when the helicopter

went missing, he said.

"It's been a very difficult search," Helgeson. "We're not able to use any
airplanes or helicopters because of the weather."
