[Scan-DC] Discussion:How Technology has caused the hobby to change

[KD4IIW at comcast.net]

I would like to start a discussion about this thought I had the other day.   How has 
technology changed your scanner hobby.   I my own situation.  I no longer own 
any scanners.  (I know, I know, how can that be?)   I think technology has driven 
most casual scanner listeners out of the hobby from the change from vhf/uhf systems, to 
800mhz trunking, digital trunking, and now narrow band, etc.  All of this technology and
the learning curves to learn about the new systems has both priced listeners out of the 
hobby or turned them off from it all together.   What do you think??
