I really enjoyed the presentation. I'm debating on purchasing the WS1040 or the WS1065. I'm retired from the USAF (SECURITY FORCES). My grandson is 9-years old and really is interested in listening to police, fire, etc. on our neighbor's crusor who is a Sgt for the Ft Valley, GA Police Department. I think this will get him more interested in the day to day operation of what really goes on in real time with our first responders.
Would be nice if the keylock could be retained when the scanner power is turned off and back on. As it is, you can't really give someone the scanner to carry around because if it gets turned off and back on random key presses will mess up the programming.

Thank you for introductiin.
Helen it’s been six months that you’ve had this scanner. I’m thinking of getting one shortly. How are you liking it today?
My whistler 1040 scanner is not working and I can’t reset it either. Can you please tell me how to reset it
This sounds tricky but I'll get used to it. The radio arrived yesterday. I'm getting batteries today.
