Hello. Are there existing Los Angeles GMRS repeaters that are either open or open to new members? If so please let me know what they are, or where to get more info. Thank you!

Hi there, Does anyone know if Los Angeles and around still use Pocsag and maybe the freq? I just recently moved here from Europe, so if anyone could give some recommendations that would be very great! Thank you

Sorry if this may be posted in the wrong forum. I don't know if this is a issue with the TRX-1 or not. I travel daily to LA and have imported Analog LAPD in one scan list and Trunking LAPD in another scan list from the database using EZscan. Analog comes ins beautifully. Silence on the Trunking...

Hi all! It's been a WHILE since I've been here. I hope you are all doing well. I am trying to put together a comprehensive frequency list, database and - of course - program my scanner with any/all frequencies in the heart of Hollywood, CA (my hood). Police/fire/normal stuff is all covered, but...

I've been monitoring LA Co Sheriff Dispatch 1 Altadena / Crescenta and I've heard 0 radio traffic including L-Tac 8 which is shared with Santa Clarita, anyone else notice or am I now in a dead zone ? I haven't been listening much, but I suspect they might be on C-Tac ?

I'm programming my Kenwood Th-D72 radio for travel to Los Angeles. What are the main ARES/RACES nets for Los Angeles County? Thanks,KF6OLC

I'm new to the scanning world. I'm a HAM and am looking into purchasing a digital trunking scanner. However I'm reading on this forum that there is increasingly less to listen to due to the shift to encrypted communication. Is it still worth it?

Hello, Does anyone know how LAPD or LASD have their radio's setup? Which channel's/freqs are in which zones? Are they all setup the same or does each station/area have theirs setup however they want? Thanks.

I purchased one of these last week and am pretty impressed with the reception here in Los Angeles. I have posted a bandscan of the FM dial if you are interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHGJ07cq8yI&t=52s

Hi. I'm relatively new to scanning. I listen in the Los Angeles area. I have a Uniden BCT15X scanner and love it. I have a number of conventional systems programmed and humming along including LASD, CHP, and LAFD. However, I'm having less success finding analog trunked systems with lots of...

So I think the forums have basically covered the deal with AMR and low band in Los Angeles County. But what about UHF? I can confirm the use of Green 1 & 2 in the AV & Santa Clarita, but I need some assistance in finding out if the other UHF channels are still active. Santa Clarita 460.55, 100...

I was free scanning this morning and found 172.4500MHz NAC 148 anyone know what agency this is ? assuming its federal somekind of Law Enforcement activity

I was surfing around the ICIS site today and noticed a comment that LA-RICS did not plan to lobby the FCC to keep the UHF-T band....so I did some more looking, and saw LA-RICS has a new plan to build their system with all 96 (48 pairs) of the 700 Mhz frequencies and existing 800 Mhz frequencies...

Hello All, I have heard on my radio as of this morning (not last night) that LA County Sheriff Dispatch 13 (could also be others but this is all I can receive) is utilizing new busy tones (which is when a field unit talks to dispatch and the patch is not in use.) Has anyone heard this on other...

Hey All, I've recently started a little project mapping out the mdc id's for LA County fire. I don't know if anyone has an interest -- I do know some people however are avid listeners of the county system and it might be helpful or just nice to have mdc decoding working for your alpha display...

Los Angeles, CA - When the machine swallowed her hand, slicing off one finger and mangling the rest, Tania Wafer's co-workers tried frantically to stop the bleeding as a supervisor dialed 911. Read more: L.A. Times

Since this feed has gotten so busy, I'm thinking about deleting Redondo Beach and Hermosa Beach Police and Fire from the lineup as it's already being carried by another feed provider. Here's the dilemma: On one hand, it's nice to have all the South Bay cities centralized in one feed and not...

The Los Angeles Regional Interoperable Communications System is supposed to link all of L.A. County's first responders. But its status is uncertain. Blame sloppiness, recriminations and politics. http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-newton-column-20110611,0,2121450.columnL

Does anyone have a good source (or private collection) of cool Los Angeles area frequencies not usually published in a normal database? Specifically- I'm interested in: Movie Production/TV Production (The wireless mics they use as well as gneral filming communiaction) Also - Television and radio...

If you have no patience ... Move along! I guess I can't really call myself a 'newbie'. I've been scanning for my entire life (and i'm old enough to remember the 70's!) I've even owned 'trunking' scanners, but i've never gotten full use of them because for some reason I just can't grasp the...
