HOLY @#$%^ !!!! 370 bucks for the kit? Jeezalou that IS pricey.
Christ.... for THAT kind of money I could buy a Tuffy brand locking
console (with seperate locking radio area) & mount a scanner in there.

Scanner Master has a remote head kit for the BC780, and is reportedly
working on something similar for the BC785/796. In addition, they have
a remote working around a Pocket PC for the 785/796. Both are quite
pricey. There's nothing off the shelf that has a remote scanner face on
the market now.
In most states, hams are exempted from many scanner laws; go get a
Tech license, and you wouldn't have to worry about some stupid law.
It's not that hard; a little study and you'd have it....73s Mike

Just curious as I am still thinking about buying a scanner to install
in my jeep and a wired remote scanner face (that could be mounted on
the dash) would be perfect so I could.... 1. mount the scanner body in
an extremely secure area in my vehicle to prevent theft & 2. since it
is illegal to have a scanner in a vehicle here.... a wired faceplate
would make hiding it that much easier.

Just curious if there is anything like that out there in the
marketplace? I have looked & so far have seen nothing.
