The Following is a Brief Defination of Scanning and what it's all about--
Scanning is is a way of monitoring the airs radio Frequincies. You use a "Scanner" whaich really only a base unit that recieves these frequincies and alows you to hear them be unscrambling them, just as a AM/FM radio unscrambles it's waves.
When listing to a scanner you hear things when they happen, none of the frequincies are pre-recorded. Many other people hear the past on the News, or Radio. You really almost have a "Front row seat on the action."
When listining to a scanner you aid law enforcment agencies by adding an extra pair of eyes looking out for them. Monitoring a scanner is almost like a game, it is a technical challenge. Yu are discover new ways to improve youe your radio reception.
So lastly Scanning is a fun way to get on top of the action and have fun doing it!

The Following Is a Guide To Use When Purchising a Scanner--
When Purchasing a Scanner You Should alawys decide what you want before you go to the store to buy it. As soon as you walk into the store and see al of those scanners you will be so confused with what you want. If you are new to scanners I will try to answers that many people usually ask.
F.A.Q.
The place that I would recomed is Radio Shack, their selection is Great and since they are local you can alawys get help or ask questions anytime you need to.
When chosing a scanner make a list with points and ideas with which type of scanner fits you best. Weather it be a Home model ( has a base and is used primarly in one place, not for transporting), a mobile mode ( You can take it anywhere , primarly used in cars to take with you as you drive), or a handheld model ( You can use it a home or take it with you, personaly the one I recomed because it is so compact and portable) you chose the one that best fits you. And also list what type of frequencies yuo want to listen to, you can talk to the retailer that you buy your scanner from for more information on that.
If you are really truly intrested in buying a scanner call your local retailer for more information ( Radio Shack has a great catalog for scanners). My best piece of information for buying a scanner is shop around, and don't just go into 1 store and see a scanner and say "YEP, THATS THE ONE I WANT< LETS BUY IT AND GO HOME," no take a while to decide and be sure you are going to be satisfied with the scanner that you chose.
The following are a list of things to keep in mind while using a scanner--
When Dusing a scanner sure to alawys follow the Law, and be safe. The punishments are very severe for breaking these laws These rules are spelled out in the 'Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) of 1986. The FBI and Federal Communications Commision maintain a staff of investigators thriought the country, they will definatly make arrests when warranted. The punishment consist of fines and/or prison staments of as long as 10 years.
Federal Law makes it a crime to intentionally intercept the following types of Radio transmitions:
Regarding radio transmitions that you hear , it is against Federal law to :
If you hear something on your scanner, do not go to the scene because in many states it is against the law to "sight-see" at the scene of an emergency. Experienced listeners know that you will be able to hear more by listining than by being there.
And lastly alawys have fun, and alawys find ways to make your listining experience more fun while still being safe.
