hey thx al 35 i listen to the co so almost 24 7.ill be listening tonight for sure.john
It would be kinda cool to pickup the Frequency that A & E uses to talk back and forth when they are with the cars if they have such a thing.
They use specialized cellular hardware for connecting their cameras; communication with the control room in NYC (or each other) for coordination is most likely through that.
Watching the show it appears one car is in Zone 2 (NE) and the other in Zone 3 (SW).
According to a story on 10TV, Live PD will be in town for ten months.

I did notice they do seem to move them to additional zones for tv time. They ended up in groveport at some point. The show runs on about a 40 minute delay.

"LIVE" PD
What bugs me is that they try to act like everything is happening "Real Time" when it obviously isn't.
It's heavily edited.
Dan Abrams acts like it's happening live when it shows different dates and time-of-day.incidents.
There's no way things could happen in such a convenient sequence.
They edit a whole week's activity down to 2 Nights on TV.
I wish they'd just be HONEST.

Incorrect. All the radio audio lines up with the two days. The reason why is they choose the calls the deputies respond to. All the oddballs are chosen to give it more views.

As someone who has worked in both television and law enforcement, it appears to be authentic and fairly contemporaneous. And, yes, it is delayed. FCC rules mandate delays on some broadcasts now. I think the impetus for the delay came after the alleged "wardrobe malfunction" on the Super Bowl.
I'm also pretty sure the officers put their "best foot forward" and might be much nicer in front of the cameras than they might otherwise be.
And it appears to be edited but not heavily. Trust me, there are some things you don't want to see or hear. Longer delays may be because they're editing out the distasteful stuff. If they only wanted the "action" they wouldn't have the boring traffic stops.

It may be that way in your area. Columbus is all during the current time frame.
Actually the delay varies from less than a minute or two to up to 20 minutes or so; this is apparently a restriction placed on them by A&E so that situations can be edited and/or bleeped as needed. Heaven forbid any "wardrobe malfunctions" should slip through on cable TV.
They apparently missed the porn movie in the background Friday evening when they went to arrest the woman on warrants. The look on the deputy's face when the moaning started was pretty priceless. . .

hey doc
you have listen or noticed the little thing about "recorded earlier" ??
you have listen or noticed the little thing about "recorded earlier" ??
It irritates the hell out of me that in 2018 (when 10 year olds are killing people), a cable channel (of all things) feels that they have to bleep words. I guarantee that the vast majority of "kids" that may be watching the show say things all the time that would make a sailor blush.
That was quite comical.

Definitely "Live" as opposed to "Rewind."
That's a result of the infamous Justin Timberlake/Janet Jackson "wardrobe malfunction" at the Super Bowl back in 04. The FCC clamped down pretty hard on allowing that sort of thing to slip through.
Of course, that referred primarily to broadcast networks which everybody can receive over the air, versus cable channels which not everybody has access to.
A&E is erring pretty far on the side of caution in this regard, probably because of the really raw and unscripted nature of many interactions between the citizenry and the police.
Yeah, they pretty much "bleep" out George Carlin's famous 7 words but everything else seems to be wide open. It is cable, though, and they give the mandatory warning in the upper left corner to let you know that your sensibilities my be offended,
