Hello I am Stretch the Scanner Guy, and I have started a Facebook Page. I have started discussions about recent events in Sacramento such as the recent Air Show and the Space Shuttle Flyover. It is titled Stretch Parsons but I am trying to change it to Scannerstretch.

From SacSheriff.com On Saturday, September 1, 2012, the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department will begin providing contractual law enforcement services to the City of Isleton. The scope of the law enforcement services shall be provided at a level commensurate with those services being...

The Scramento fire trunking system as I know it, went down last night, any clues to what happened?

Sounds like a breaking security event at SMF. They have called everyone in from off-duty and activated the DOC. Terminal A They have open doors to the tarmac. AIROPS talkgroup

I was checking SSD's online crime mapping program, and I entered my address (My general area is Elk-Grove Florin Road & Calvine Road), and the district coming up is 6, when it used to say district 7. Has the department changed its districts? Or is this just an error in the program?

Does anyone have a SSD Beat Map like in a PDF or some other format? If so I would like a copy of one. Please post! Or PM me! It would be greatly appreciated!

Did anyone else notice this morning (3/7/10) that when the fire dispatch on 154.19000 and 153.89000 tones went out, there was no voice afterwards? This happened at least 8 times between 8:00 am and 8:30 am. So I have three questions: 1. Why does this occur? 2. Was the voice heard on the...

Does anyone have a list of the fire station locations in the county that SRFECC dispatches? If so, please reply with a link to the file or webpage. This would be greatly appreciated as I am creating a custom Google Earth interface with fire stations locations. Thank you and happy scanning!

I heard actual dispatching on Black2 today. I am not sure if they were just simulcasting or what, but it did not go on for long as they were back on black shortly thereafter. I heard the traffic around 14:00.

Hello, I'm having more trouble than I should to program my PSR-500 for Sacramento's Public Safety trunking system. I think it all comes down to which of the following TSYS "Types" I should use: (1) Mot 800/900 (2) Mot VHF/UHF (3) P25 Manual (4) P25 Automatic (5) EDACS Standard (6)...

I am running a discone into my VHF low band scanner and picking up CHP from Chico to Merced and Truckee to San Francisco. I pick up cars in the Sacramento area most of the time as well. I only get signals on the EXTENDER frequency when a car is close to me. So far so good. When this first...

Hi all, I've got a PRO-79 (I believe) and had it programmed at the local R/S. I also have Mr. Scanner software.... So, I've been listening to police/fire/airport stuff, but would like to know if anyone in my area or otherwise knows about listening to private security? In my case, our HOA has...

It's pretty easy to know north Sacramento from south Sacramento since there is a river running right through the middle. I remember back when downtown was considered to be bordered by the Sacramento River on the west, the American River on the north, Alhambra Blvd on the east and Broadway on...

I am trying to set up two BC780 scanners. I notice in the Data Base for Sacramento that it lists two systems..... a City system and a County system...... The problem is the Talk Group IDs do not seem to say which system goes with which Talk Groups. If I understand correctly ( or do I ? )...

Sac Metro Fire responded to an incident this morning. They had been assigned a regular TAC channel (either A6 or A7). Once at the scene, it was determined that a couple of engines could handle the situation and they were releasing the TAC channel. It also said that crews on the scene would be...
