Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Mark,

Good gear Uniden. I'm using a Uniden UBC92XLT in the car and as a portable. I also use a Jabro Blue tooth head set that is connected to the scanner via a Jabro Blue Tooth transmitter box (new product) . This means the scanner can be placed discreetly in a back pack, under your jacket or if left in the car up to say 10 metres away if you taking a shot you can still get all the action in your ear.
