Local Frequencies

[Drake-r8]

Hello to all - new to this forum and it's been very helpful so far. Recently retired and unboxed my PRO-2006 until I get a newer scanner. I'm hearing alot of frequencies that are not in the "Online Reports - All Identified Frequencies in the Omaha metro area" database. I've found probably 80 to 100 frequencies with regular traffic that I can't identify - all analog of course. Does anyone know of another online database for this area? Thanks in advance.

Go to the database link at the top of the page.
Go to your state and county.
Click on the FCC Licenses tab on your county
Click on DIsplay all FCC Licenses in [county] [state]
Then you can sort by frequency order and turn on the services that are turned off by default.
Assuming you are in Douglas County you would see:
https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?action=fccLicenses&ctid=1678&os=0&s=fr&bf=479
You might want to do that for your county and surrounding counties and bookmark the links.

You can also go to the main database page, scroll down to Search FCC Data and search for individual frequencies in your state,
or go to the database page for your state and click the Search tab to search for individual frequencies in your state.

If you are in the Omaha area you might be able to hear some stuff in Iowa so you would have to search that state separately.

The main database page for each county only contains what has been submitted by users. This is mostly public safety type stuff. The searches I described above will show most FCC licenses including tons of businesses that are not shown in the RRDB. It won't show federal government users.

Thank you. Maybe I wasn't as thorough as I could have been!

Also if you post frequencies here in the forums that you can't identify, somebody else probably can.
