Not sure what you mean exactly - do you want to buy something like this?

Thank you for your prompt reply.
what I would like to do is listen to scanners on my computer.

How can you listen to scanners? Surely you mean you want to listen to broadcasts such as the police, taxi drivers and so on?

SB - see my link above - some people (god knows why) have web controllable radio receivers you can control and listen to!

I recall Maplin 10 years sells what you are after hardware and software to enable your laptop as a scanning station. Not sure if they still sells them.
