Feed Notes

Scanner Equipment is Located in Plano, TX. Near Independence and 15th St.

Scanner Improvements and new features.

Installed new Directional Terrawave 16 Element Vertical Yagi Base Antenna.
824-960 MHz with 15 (dBi) gain.
This greatly improved reception from Frisco Police & Fire and others.
This antenna is app. 35 feet above the ground.

Installed new 800 MHz UHF Omni-directional Vertical Outdoor Base Antenna.
(851-869 MHz) with Gain: 7 dBi. Wavelength:  Multiple 1/2 wavelength elements.
This antenna is app. 30 feet above the ground.

I went with a two-antenna system with a UHF splitter/combiner to allow both antennas to be brought to the radio with a single coax. The combination allows both to act as a single antenna with the signals getting the benefit of a beam and an Omni-directional while increasing the signal from both. 

New frequencies added ( Collin County Sheriff Dept. )
Removed unwanted and not useful frequencies so the scanner can scan faster.
