1 AnswerVideo & Online Games8 years agoLooking for a police scanner that will pick up the newer frequencies?
My local police/fire/ ambulance are switching to digital channels by the start of next year. My mom's police scanner is about 15 years old and picks up very little these days because of these changes. What I'd like to know is:
* Will just a new, off-the-shelf scanner solve the issue? Are they all already set to receive these new frequencies?
* Or do I specifically need a scanner that can handle "trunked" frequencies? What is "trunking," anyway?
* What features and terminology in the product descriptions do I need to look for that will tell me if the scanner will do the job?
* Are all the ones that can handle the new frequencies as obscenely expensive as some I've seen? ($300-$500) or are there options in the $100-$150 range?
Any help appreciated.

1 AnswerMovies1 decade agoAfter an old debt is posted as "written off" on one's credit report, can the creditor still try to collect?
or is it basically closed entirely at that point?
Or can they reopen depending upon the amount of time that has passed since it was closed (statute of limitations) for debt.
2 AnswersCredit1 decade agoXBOX 360 problem. Anyone had this? Or at least know what it is?
I have an older 360 20Gb with the firmware update (With Wiivatar and new dashboard.)
No RRoD or anything like that. It locks up. Sometimes it locks right after it turns on and it freezes on the introductory logo screen and I have to turn it off, then back on.
Or I get to a game (any game) and after a couple minutes tops the screen freezes. I have to turn it off, then back on only to have the same thing happen again..
Any ideas?

6 AnswersVideo & Online Games1 decade agoNeed help Identifying a Song.?
Yes. I tried Googling the lyrics. I tried a couple of lyric finder search engines. No luck. But maybe this is someone's favorite:
(Female Artist)
You've asked me many times before
To tell you that I love you more
Than anyone I knew before we met.
The truth is that I can't recall
Anyone else at all
That makes me sing this song the way you do.
So I will sing this love song for you and for me
I promise no one else will strum along
It's not much to give
But as long as we live
I will sing this song for you and for me.
Everyone who has hopes and dreams
Things aren't aleays what they seem
It takes a long long time to make things right.
Truth is that I've finally found
How life is right with you around
To make me sing the song that never ends
So Iw ill sing this love song for you and for me
I Promise no one else will sing along.
It's not much to give
But as long as we live
I will sing this song for you and for me
(Repeat chorus once more)

2 AnswersProgramming & Design1 decade agoMass Effect Question Is a supercharacter possible?
Now I Know that skills like decryption, lift, hacking, first aid etc. can be opened for new characters if you use the skill on a previous playthrough 75 times.
My question is: Is it possible that, if you play through enough, can you unlock virtually all the skills for one character. One that can learn and use everything...or almost everything?
Just curious and thanks for the help.

Let's say there's something that causes a planet's core to cool. Would that also cause a change in mass? Are their physical reactions within that, once stopped, would create other changes that would increase or decrease the mass of the planet?
4 AnswersPhysics1 decade agoFriend has the PS3 Oblivion GOTY edition. Vampire question?
In the PC version I understand that after you rest three days and become a vamp there's a vampire "house" that becomes availiable for purchase. (I just started the game myself. Not far enough to help them)
Is that house still availiable in the GotY edition? Are there side quests or levels and such that have to be completed before you can buy the house in the GotY addition?
Does anyone know what I'm talking about? :)
Any help'd be great.
3 AnswersVideo & Online Games1 decade agoIf people that molest our children and plan terrorist attacks can get socialized medicine in the USA?
...Why can't I have it??????
The guy in the federal prison system that has proven that he can't live or function in normal society to such a degree that he'll never contribute to it in a positive way gets all his needs taken care of.
many of the prisoners at Gitmo aren't terrorists...but some are. These people that would kill the children of the "Great Satan" (USA) by the millions if they could? THEY get taken care of with the best we have to offer. They get preventative MRIs for heaven's sake.
If THESE people get it and it's fine, why is government sponsored, single-payer care bad for me? Someone who contributes. Someone who is a decent person and has never purposely harmed another, why do I (or you) deserve less than these people?

12 AnswersOther - Politics & Government1 decade agoDoes anyone who hates Michael Moore have the guts to admit the man has a point?
When, in Sicko, he gives a brief synopsis of American life.
- You pretty much need to go to college, but the cost is too high.
-So you take out, almost by necessity, huge student loans.
-You get out and have to start paying the money back, so you take a job, usually the first job you can find.
-It barely covers things, so you don't wanna lose it, so you won't make waves or ask questions of your employer or your government. You'll just shut up and keep your head down.
-And if the stress gets to be too much, there are a great number of doctor prescribed pharmaceutacles that'll help you through the day.
Now, you may dispute the point and that's fine. But are you open-minded enough to admit that he has one? That this is what life is for a LOT of people...and they aren't more active (on EITHER side of politics) because they are afraid of their government, and losing what little they have.

12 AnswersCelebrities1 decade agoHave your 360 problems caused you to swear off any future XBox?
I've had one replaced already. Fortunately I bought the extended service plan from the merchant so there was no jumping through hoops or begging MS to take it back.
But I've heard of people that are on their third or fourth. Add to that that the problem doesn't seem to be going away.
They've made a crap product that they slapped together just to get out there first. My own experiences and the continuing horror stories are enough for me.
I'm never buying another MS console. How about you? if you're willing to give them another shot in a few years..or not...why?
