It's really very frightening Listening to Cook County Illinois now again, there are some cops doing a steak-out or something, they’re all whispering to eachother.

Except the scanner I had wasn't prohibitively expensive, it was about 20 quid from Argos... Like you I lived in the middle of nowhere though so indeed it wasn't very exciting. I wish I still had it. To hear voices, particularly those of airplane pilots, drifting in from beyond the void... was creepily exciting. Especially, even, when you couldn't understand what the fuck they were going on about. I say particularly airplane pilots because they had a way of speaking that was especially cryptic, sort of like the voices of the Conet Project (to a young boy at least). The concept of this site is brilliant.. I'm going to have a listen now. I have to say I was that annoying guy.
