We would like to take this opportunity to thank the community for their continued support throughout 2009, so far we have gained in excess of two hundred new members which has effectively improved the quantity and quality of communications information supplied to the Australian Scanner Community.

Founded in 2007 under a localised QLD name "Rochedale Scan", things were growing at a steady pace and the decision to catar for enthusiasts in other Australian states and territories was made. In January 2009 the "Aussie Scanners" name was adopted and volunteers were taken on board to help with the transition process.

We invite you to take a look around and make the most of our many exciting features, participation on the discussion forums would be greatly appreciated and would help you meet other scanner fanatics in your area.

Best of luck for 2010!
From the team @ Aussie Scanners
