Abstract: The present invention is a computer-based radio scanner internet system, with home base user computers with radio scanner hardware and software, a host server computer, a plurality of remotely located antenna computers connected to antennas, and an internet system. The user computer also has conventional operating hardware and software, a sound system, a monitor, a keyboard or mouse, as well as disc drive, CD Rom drive. The radio scanner hardware contained within the user computer includes a radio receiver and frequency changer with a scanner range having at least some frequencies in the range of 25 MHz to 1,300 MHz. The antenna computers are available via the internet connection for connecting to user computers to offer remote scanning of even an intercontinental nature, e.g., a user in Boston can, through this system, use his computer-based scanner to scan frequencies in, for example, Los Angeles. Local scanning is also available using the foregoing user computers with their own antennas.
