Here is a quick video of the old school Realistic Pro-50 Scanner picking up an emergency services transmission in Birmingham UK. All things considered, the Pro 50 is not a bad old receiver. It's old tech and only has 20 channels, but still receives all the transmissions that my other scanners pick up. And thanks to the screen being a bit like a watch or calculator, it's much less demanding on power, so the batteries seem to last quite some time. Takes 6 AA batteries or can be run on a 9V DC mains adapter.
