Hi all, I recently moved to the roanoke, va area and i'm trying to get a handle on why some freqs aren't coming through. I've read that roanoke city and county both have all law enforcement activity on encryption but i also cannot seem to receive county fire frequencies on my sds100. Is fire...

Has anyone else noticed within the last 2-3 weeks that Virginia State Police has gone full encryption for even routine dispatch traffic? Suddenly they’ve gone quite and even after updating tables zilch. That’s the Appomattox Division in Central VA. Thanks!

Hi, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm basically trying to replicate Fairfax County Police, Fire and EMS Live Audio Feed to get FRD and PD on the Uniden. I created the favorites list directly from the Sentinel app using the Radio Reference import feature. Here's a link to my favorites list...

Hi. I'm confused about the frequencies at https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?aid=1594. They are federal frequencies for Virginia, listed in the Wiki but they are not in the RR database. I can't figure out how to get them into my 436 HP using Sentinel, Proscan or anything else. I can get a...

I have used a Homepatrol 2 for a couple years in Lynchburg and at Smith Mountain Lake (Bedford County). Since the change to P25, I have been unable to hear much on the Central Virginia Radio Communication System. I update the database via Sentinel at least once a week and it appears that...

I am just starting with the scanners, so am very very new at this. I bought the BaoFeng BF-F8HP and after hours of googling I am so confused. I thought I will be able to listen to police and fire rescue radios but i cannot find a list with frequencies on my area. Maybe I am watching too much TV...

Has the Central Virginia Planning District become digital?

For the past 24 hours this feed has been offline. There has been a ton of action in my AO during this same time-frame, but go figure the feed archives aren't available because of the downed status. Does anybody know what's going on with it?

Hi all, I have a RS PRO-96. I live in Chesapeake, and am having problems receiving the Chesapeake 800 MHz system on my scanner. It is receiving some transmissions, I do pick up some traffic from FD Dispatch, and occasionally from PD East and West, but it seems to spend a lot of time "hung up"...

I hear some units referred to by their number with an "x" after it. Anyone know what this means? Anyone have a code, signal and unit list for CPD?

On 12-10-14 Nelson County EMS and law enforcement changed to digital narrowband radios. Perhaps added an extra channel or two. Does anyone know if this is standard APCO 25 format digital and what the frequencies are? I am hearing what I think are the digital streams, but they aren't decoding...

Hello folks, I'm having a very difficult time programming the Uniden 996XT, in fact I'm completely clueless. I have done the best I can with both ARC-XT and Freescan. When I compile everything to send to the scanner everything filed under S0:1 which I assume is the quick key. So it's not...

I live in Henrico county and for the past 24 hrs or more my pro-106 hasn't picked up a single word from any of the Police, Fire or EMS channels. Is their system down or did something change? Even the streaming through the iPhone app is silent. Anyone know why?

I'm picking up activity on DHS freqs in the Roanoke Valley. Mostly dead-key X-mits and relay of weather reports. These are clearly tests. The system could be up and limping in a week or two. If you are capable of monitoring the DHS freqs in this area, please share any info you have. We need to...

I have been looking for a map or a listing of how counties (Chesterfield county in particular) are divided up into the different patrol zones. My scanner, Pro-106, has listings such as Zone 1, Zone 2, etc... But is there anywhere that I can get a definitive list of how it is all broken down...
