I am looking for a list of the 400 code so that I know what Metro is talking about on my scanners. Thanks

Here's what he's talking about

About halfway down.

According to Steven Hager, editor of High Times, the term 420 originated at San Rafael High School, in 1971, among a group of about a dozen pot-smoking wiseacres who called themselves the Waldos, who are now pushing 50. The term was shorthand for the time of day the group would meet, at the campus statue of Louis Pasteur, to smoke pot. Intent on developing their own discreet language, they made 420 code for a time to get high, and its use spread among members of an entire generation. While our teens feel that they know something we don't, you can let them in on the fact that it was your generation that came up with the numbers.

A quote from one of the Waldos in the High Times article states, "We did discover we could talk about getting high in front of our parents without them knowing by using the phrase 420." Fortunately, your teenagers will not have that same option.

I wasn't aware that was a pot smoker's code. Shows how much I know about pot.

Thanks Jim.

The frequencies are here.

You then enter the specific trunking codes. If your radio is not set up to handle trunking, you may not be able to listen. I have a Radio Shack Pro-96, which seems to handle just about anything.

I am not up to speed on all of the nuances of scanning, but radioreference.com and freqofnature.com are both pretty good sites.

Thanks, Jim. I have a Ratshack PRO 94. It says Dual Trunking on it.. Guess I'll have to dig out the instruction book.
