Does anyone have any information on Port Authority callsigns at all? I understand that they are now encrypted, and any relevant information is hard to come by, but I am looking for any information on callsigns used by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. While I am interested in police...

Hello to all! I frequently listen to NYPD SOD which covers ESU. I sometimes hear central mentioning to a unit something about "division". Does anyone know what this refers to?

Has anyone heard anything on or about the Traffic Enforcement Manhattan / Staten Island channel? I haven’t heard any traffic at all from their channel in weeks. Even checked if it was my PL tone or inputs but both were correct. I noticed a few traffic agents now with APX 900s / VX-P949s and I...

I was reading this excellent article from the NY Times, and couldn't help my curiousity about what handheld radio Mr. John Roca is holding in his hand in this photo...

Hello, is it possible to determine the call sign or department/bureau of an NYPD vehicle based on its license plate?

Hello everyone! I am on a project looking for and trying to put together a listing of NYPD unit Call Signs. I understand that the patrol ones are the patrol number + the sector letter, example 27 Adam. But I have doubts with all the rest: How are the callsigns of an ESU operator? How are the...

Looking for a codeplug for a XPR 5550/4550 UHF that has Amateur Radio, NYPD, FDNY. Please send me a PM if you have one that you can share.

I have a Whistler WS 1040 scanner and my antenna that came with it doesn’t work very well. I’ve been looking for a good antenna but I’m having trouble since I don’t know anything about antennas or frequencies. I live in NYC and I would like to listen to the FDNY and NYPD. Do you have any good...

Last night, it seemed several dispatchers were simultaneously covering other divisions. I couldn't scan much but I saw 100/101/102/106 were on the same air, 104/112/108/114 were linked and the 84/88/90/94 were linked. I guess covid and new years call-outs stretched them thin. I hope they get...

Hello! Pretty new to radio, so forgive me if I mix up some terms. I'm interested in tuning into transmissions directly from NYPD mobile units, rather than repeater-broadcast frequencies featuring the dispatcher. I was reading this thread, which states the mobile units use a separate "talk-in"...

I saw this photo and I actually saw some officers in person carrying these as well. Couldn’t get a great look but they look like APX4000’s or something like that. Can anyone confirm or know what model these are?

Slow night for the NYPD in Brooklyn https://youtu.be/HjSJ9hFB2hU

If anyone is interested in listening "This is a 10-13. Whoever is telling you to slow it down, tell them to stay off the air" https://youtu.be/y9GBnJidt7I

Does anyone know what police precincts are covered by FDNY EMS channels? Since 4 of the boroughs are split into 2 or 3 frequencies, can anyone list what police boundaries are covered by each EMS frequencies. For example, EMS Brooklyn North to my knowledge covers the 94, 90, 84, 88, 83, 81, 79...

Anyone know why there seems to be a larger presence of state police in NYC, most notably in upper Manhattan and the Bronx? Talked to a cop friend of mines and he said they don't get along with the NYPD. Also do they use their own state Troop talk group or do they have access to the NYPD system?

Hello, Is anyone else getting very low volume on the NYPD Special Operations scanner feed. I'm getting it on three different apps, on my laptop and desktop. It can faintly be heard at max volume. Thanks!

There was a Blue Bloods episode tonight where they had someone making false dispatch calls. Had the cops looking at scanner owners. The one kid had a radio (HT) that they said could transmit on NYPD frequencies. In the end they did capture two individuals who did have an HT that did make the...

I might be moving to philly sometime this year. I grew up and lived most of my life in NYC and scanner listening was on of my hobbies. So what are my chances of hearing NYPD SOD and FDNY in philly with a decent outdoor antenna? I'm glad there's live feeds but nothing beats the physical gear. 90...

Hi All, New to posting here, I have a you-tube page and thought some of you might be interested in listening to some NYPD audio that I've recorded and posted. NYPD 67TH PCT FOOT CHASE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ml3FhJyjIw NYPD Involved Shooting 7/10/16...

I was on NYPD Staten Island listening, and I noticed that the transmissions for the 122 Pct and 123 Pct are 5X5, loud and clear. However, transmissions for the 120 Pct. and 121 Pct., are difficult to hear. Is there another place to listen online for better quality transmissions for NYPD...
