It appears Kankakee Co Public Safety operates on a Type II trunked system. Details are here:
KanCom - Kankakee City/County Public Safety Trunking System, Kankakee, Illinois - Scanner Frequencies

You will need a trunking scanner to monitor this system. If I'm not mistaken, any trunking scanner will work for this system. See the list here:
Category:Trunking Scanners - The RadioReference Wiki

The 4 digit numbers are talkgroup id's. Talkgroups are something like channel numbers and completely separate from the frequencies. Read up on the wiki about trunked radio systems if you're unfamiliar:
