I’m talking about the tabletop version that is always on in the background.

Because they are nosey. A police scanner is like Facebook gossip, before Facebook gossip was ever a thing.

I've literally never met anyone, you or old, that owns or listens to a police scanner.

Scare themselves while scaring their friends.

Addiction to stress chemistry.

Similar to listening to coast to coast a.m. while going to sleep.

This reminds me of growing up. My aunt was in the bail bonds business and she always had hers on. Good time.

Normally cops, or cops families do this. Not much anymore though. If I see something going on, I'll download a scanner app.
