This usually means a software package that is capable of decoding digital.

Most bearcats are pretty good in the digital area.

It some cases it may even mean a slight modification to the scanner.

You should be aware however that scanner use in the US has quite strict legislation which in some states may prohibit the decoding of such signals so please check first.

A good source of information are the two sites below

Frequencies

Scanner software

These may also help you find out if it legal or not in your state

SOURCE: can you convert radio shack pro 2038 base police

Sorry, but there is no way to convert an analog scanner to receive and process digital transmissions. Your only alternative is to purchase a digital scanner, and current models are in the $500 range.

What is the best scanner to receive local police reports

The all depends on what the police are using in your area. If the police are on a simplex frequency or a local repeater, just about any scanner will do. If you are in an area with P25 digital trunking, you are going to need a more expensive scanner such as the Uniden BC396XT or the brand new Uniden BCD436HP.

Accidentally earsed the memory card, can i find them somehow?

If you haven't done anything to the card since you formatted it, then you have a chance. Do a Google search for "data recovery software" and select a program for your computer and operating system. Put the card into a card reader attached to your computer and run the program.

Uniden police scanner

Hi,

Yes they are a great digital radio scanner, not POLICE scanner,

Police around the world are fed up with people using these to listen in on their operations, and are progressively moving to digital mode, but a mode that these scanners wont pick up, P25 or not.

There are many other things to listen in on, and it doesn't involve the law, fire, ambulance services.

If you're in a country or state or city where these services have gone to digital mode, then you're out of luck, you will not here anything on their frequencies.

But that's what happens when silly people use these radios in pursuits or any other way that hinders the service from doing the duties.

I feel no pain for your loss.

Cheers,
Peter

Is it possable to convert a anlog police scanner to digal sigal

Sorry, but the two signal types are not compatible with each other, and there is no APCO-25 (digital) card made for your scanner. In order to receive the digital signals you will need to purchase a digital scanner.

I cannot use a 4 gb sdhc card in kodak z710. Why? I can solve somehow?

The Z710 is designed to work with MMC and SD cards. It will not work with SDHC cards.

Even though an SDHC card will fit into an SD slot, there are electronic incompatibilities that prevent it from working. This is a hardware issue, and cannot be fixed in firmware.

You will have to use SD cards, 2GB and smaller.
