The radio scanning scene in Launceston Tasmania is changing, with a number of users leaving the bands for other communication methods, such as mobile phones, data terminals or using UHF CB. A new shared radio network for all government radio users (TASGRN) has been deployed and is now fully in use by a large number of government radio user, some of these used to be very active on VHF Mid Band frequencies, this has also changed the nature of what can be scanned.
