Here in Melbourne Victoria there are still many interesting things to listen to on a scanner, even though Victoria Police and Ambulance Victoria in Metro Melbourne are now encrypted.
I personally listen to Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV), Country Fire Authority (CFA) and the Victoria State Emergency Service (SES). But depending on your scanners capabilities, it is also possible to listen to many other services including but not limited to Surf Life Saving Victora, Trams and Trains, Shopping Centre Security, UHF CB and Amateur Radio.
The cost of a new scanner these days starts at around $600 and goes up from there, not that cheap but is still a lot to listened to out there.
