I am in the Queen Creek area. What is the best site to program to listen to these departments. I currently have the Mesa Simulcast site programmed and barely receiving anything but it is 2am. I receive Gilbert and Mesa PD fine, most of the time using Sim D.

The Mesa simulcast system, formerly but no longer known as Simulcast D, is the system that you want to listen to for both the police departments and the fire departments and districts that are served by it.
The Thompson Peak and Shaw Butte IR sites will carry fire dispatches, but very little other traffic that isn't encrypted.
So stick with the Mesa simulcast system, which is a set of multiple sites across the cities served.

For a handheld, get a 800 antenna at Radio shack, and for a base unit get a Motorola 800 mobile antenna. makes a ton of difference, To get Simulcast C, I have to use a Yagi indoor direction
from Power Rd & Queen Creek Rd but you get can Peoria & Surprise PD from the white tanks sites super clear
