Scanner Radio

In the market for a great new scanner radio?
Here at 12Volt-Travel® you'll find an awesome selection of the best scanners. We have all the antennas and other radio equipment you may need to help you get the most from your new scanner.

With a scanner radio you can listen in on radio communications from various agencies and companies in your area. It is common to hear radio transmissions by police and fire departments, ambulance services, government agencies, air traffic and amateur radio services.

A scanner does not have the ability to communicate with any other radio as the scanner is not a transmitting device. A radio scanner is simply the best way to keep up on happenings in your area.

The maximum distance that a scanner can pick up depends on the original transmission strength, the size and quality of your scanner antenna, and the terrain between your antenna and the transmitting radio.
