[Scan-DC] iPhone: Police scanner makes arresting first choice

I've been using my scanner iPhone apps to listen to my own scanners.  
It is really cool to have the feeds available everywhere, even when  
I'm overseas. Because I can take advantage of good and steady  
reception from my home scanner, I will often use my iPhone to monitor  
activity while I'm driving around locally in my car, instead of my  
mobile scanner. The reception on my iPhone is usually better! The only  
possible downside is the 10-20 second latency.

These scanner apps are often in the top-10 sales list in the app store.
