How do you unlock a uniden scanner 148xlt?

To unlock a Uniden 148XLT scanner, you typically need to enter a specific unlock code. This code can usually be found in the user manual or obtained from Uniden's customer support. Additionally, some scanners may have a physical lock switch that needs to be flipped to unlock the device. Ensure the scanner is powered on while performing these steps.

What are some brands a scanner has?

For police scanners that are currently in production I have heard of Radio Shack and Uniden most commonly. However there are others such as AOR and GRE. Other brand names have been left in the past as well as other product lines that were absorbed or converted into bigger or more successful companies.

When picking out a scanner to purchase you will probably have a choice of whether you would like to purchase a base or a mobile scanner. The brand will probably have choices of whether you want a conventional scanner, a scanner that has the ability to receive trunking systems or you may wish to have a digital scanner.

What does a scanner typically do?

What instrument measures hertz?

An electronic frequency counter, spectrum analyzer, or an oscilloscope, among others.

A much older method is by the use of vibrating reeds!

Meters were constructed using thin metal reeds, which were resonant at particular frequencies. For example, a meter used to measure 60 Hz. could have five reeds mounted in a horizontal plane. The reeds would be calibrated to vibrate at 58, 59, 60, 61, 62 Hz. When you would look at the face of a meter connected to house current (in the U.S., for instance) you could tell whether the frequency was high, low, or right on, by seeing which reed looked the "thickest", since they would vibrate vertically. They were so accurate, that you could even tell if the frequency was 59 1/2 Hz., for example!

One should program a Regency Scanner with the model number r1077 by first turning the device's power on. Then press the manual button until the channel wanted is shown. Once the channel number is shown hit enter, which will make the frequency channel that number. Then one can go to the next channel number and hit hold, or delay, to hold the number for dispatch.

Is it illegal to have a police scanner?

The answer to this can depend a lot on where you have the scanner and what you are using it for. Different counties and states and countries differ on how and where and even if it is legal to have a radio scanner.

There are some set provisions that are set forth in the US.

Some areas of the states may have restrictions such as if you have a scanner in your vehicle you are required to have permit. Other areas may not allow people that do not have a direct need for such equipment to not drive around with it.

Some things that are illegal in the states include listening to a telephone conversation whether it is a cellular phone or a cordless or listening to scrambled or encrypted communications.
