What is Allentown NJ police freq? Its not 154.875 because I was near a car talking and it didn't come over my radio. Any help here and help if you listen to Allentown police.

Try 155.430, but keep 154.875. I believe both are used.

Allentown PD is dispatched to calls by Monmuth County on the County Car Channel (154.875 PL 151.4) - 82XX units. According to the database here, 155.4300 PL 94.8 is their "local" or talkaround channel. However, the FCC Database shows no license for them for that frequency, but that doesn't mean they aren't using it. Whoever submitted the information to the database apparently heard them on it as he/she also submitted PL. They ARE licensed for 155.415 (Repeater) so you may want to check that one also. I pick up the dispatches on 154.875 however I'm too far away to hear the others so if you can verify anything, would you be so kind as to post back? Also, if you hear them on 155.415 and can get a PL/DPL that would be great. Thanks.

I tried 154.875, 155.415, 155.4300 154.725 and some others no luck. We need someone that is really listening to Allentown police. I think the database is wrong. If they are on these freq I think I need to be a police officer in that town, because they don't do anything(no calls). Any ideas?????

The database info (154.875 PL 151.4) is NOT wrong. I monitor that frequency (Monmouth County Car Channel) and I hear county dispatch them to calls, although not too frequently You need to remember that it's a small town (0.6 square miles according to Wikipedia) and there probably isn't a lot going on there. As I stated above, I cannot verify the other frequencies as I don't monitor them, but 154.875 is definitely good.

I just confirmed with MCPR that they dispatch Allentown PD over County Car (154.875 MHz, 151.4 Hz). They must have been on a local talk-around channel.
