Hello,
I'm relatively new to radio. I would like to pick up my local police department on my HT. The RadioReference page for Greene County lists a frequency for the sheriff, but I don't hear anything related to the city police department on that channel. I've gone as far as to scan through the FCC licenses for the county in an attempt to locate the Jefferson Police Department, still no dice. Can anyone enlighten me as to how to pick up their chatter? Thank you all. --Brian

I don't know the specifics for your county, but in my county, the city and county cars are on the same frequency. They just have different unit numbers. I'd guess that it may be the case for your area especially if you've looked through the FCC database. You're probably the expert on here for your county, so hopefully you'll get some more clues by listening.
ETA: welcome to the hobby and forum!

That's certainly a possibility. I'll listen for unit numbers and see if anyone seems to exclusively hang around town. Thanks for the reply.

Compare the address listed with the calls. You will quickly figure out what unit numbers are assigned to which city, ect...
