Well, I was listening last night at 11pm and some kids were breaking into the Riverton shops (near me) - was almost tempted to go down for a look!

Anyone here ever been on a scanner cruise ? :)

yeah, we had a mates scanner for a few weeks and just drove around looking for action. we heard there was a bomb found at the belmont shops once when we were in freo.. we got there before the media and everything.. odd.

turns out it was an old used shell, nothing else of major importance.

I keep meaning to buy a scanner, one day.

It's amazing what kind of stuff goes on out there in Perth at night! Also had a mate's scanner a few years ago and was listening to a police pursuit up the Mitchell freeway - the cops had to abort a few times becuase of the speeds involved but it all ended with the car thieves ditching their ride and the cops catching them on foot in Scarborough - that was about an hour's worth of good entertainment! :)

Yeah seems as though the link is down!

This is fantastic though!! how cool would it be to be listening to something if it was happening nearby! i would be at the scene of a crime in a jiffy!

Hmmmmm how could we get this link so we could be listeening to it whilst in a car? Laptop with Mobile internet connection?? Big phone bill for that though huh! any other suggestion....It would be so much fun!! though quite annoying for the police if they were trying to sort out crimes and some little punks in skylines were there before they were...ahahah the looks on there faces would be funny though!!! something like this i'd say::eek:

Just go down to Dick Smith and buy a scanner for a couple-a-hundred bucks and off you go! If enough 'liners had scanners, we could organise a Scanner Cruise (11pm-3am - following the crime trail through Perth! :D )

I think a handheld one sells for about $400 IIRC..

WELL worth the investment... as is a radar detector....

Hell no!

$90 would be UHF handheld's.. e.g. 40channel CB's. etc. :D

the scanners are upwards, above $300...

my friend just bought both a few weeks ago :)

there's an actual scanner out for 90$ at one of the shops.. a mate saw it and checked it out.. but it only covers certain frequencies.. something ill have to look into before purchasing it.

mates old one use to do up to 1ghz?? or some crap, you were able to listen to the old analog mobiles which was always a blast :D.. but now there gone.. is there any need to listen to those frequencies up that high?

I just want, police band etc.

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
