In this podcast, we talk about the latest upgrades and updates to Whistler’s TRX-1 and TRX-2 Scanners. We also look at Whislter’s new antenna lineup, which is quite interesting.

In this podcast, our guest Chuck Gysi, who is the editor of National Communications Magazine shares about National Communications Magazine and its role in the industry.
