Howard... I see you also live in Monroe county? Is there any way for me to email you directly. I just got a HP and I'm having a few problems with reception. Thought maybe you could help me out.

My reception in Monroe county with the HP is pretty disappointing for the most part. Let me know if you have any questions, Howard

I am in Saginaw and just got a home patrol unit last week. I got mine used on Craigslist. I am liking it so far. I like being able to monitor the surrounding counties. Much more action compared to 1994 when I got my first 800 MHz police scanner. Hard to believe all those scanners from the 90's are obsolete now. I also see Midland county is going digital in spring 2015. As I stated earlier- I have been scanning since 1994 and have owned at least a dozen scanners in the past 20 years. I tried to adopt to digital 3 years ago with a digital radio shack scanner but I just could not figure it out. Home Patrol simplifies everything. I also had to purchase $100 in accessories with the Radio shack scanner: DC adaptor, computer cable, win software, rechargeable batteries and a subscription to radio reference to program the scanner.

i just got mine. I am in Oakland County. Does anyone have a file for the "OAKwin" system?

The Oakland County CLEMIS system is unmonitorable

I am listening to Oakland County, but not the latest version. I am asking for the latest version. It's called "OAKwin".
