Kentucky Roll Call

Paris, Ky here.
Wife and I usually listen to the comedy channel on our Pro2021. What freq is that you say? Its155.250, the Paris Police dept sponsored comedy routine can be heard there 24 hours a day! Poor souls, they need mapquest to find Wal-Mart. Seriously.

Thank you sir!
Latest comedy routine last night was dispatch sent 2 units to check on 2 hispanics who were supposedly intoxicated, and lying on the sidewalk. One of the units was sitting in McDonalds parking lot, one block from where he was being sent. He ask dispatch for directions to the address. Seriously.
Another call was a officer stopped a SUV full of people suspected of DUI, with Tennessee tags. Driver told officer he had a warrant out of OKlahoma, and no drivers license. 3 of the 6 people in the SUV had no id, but because they appeared "OK" he told them to leave the county and never come back. ALL 6 OF THEM!!! Did not even issue a ticket for the no op license.

Greenup County here.

I'm retired Ashland PD and now work for a small state law enforcement agency. Travel all over the state, but try to stay east of I-75 as much as possible.

Listen to Law Enforcement and Dept. of Highways when on the road (so I can avoid tie-ups)

Listen to 911 at home when I hear a siren. Also, have railroad and industrial in my grab and run bag. I live right on the Russell CSX yard, and am less than 5 miles from DuPont, A. K. Steel, Aristech and a bunch of other bad chemical places. I also listen to the mil-air and air band since I live in the approach path of DWU.



Currently using a PRO-2096, PRO-2006, PRO-163, PRO-96, PRO-43, PRO-37, BC72XLT & RE2000

I monitor from Owensboro a couple of days a week (on my days off) while at my girlfriend's apartment. I mainly scan the public safety talkgroups of the city EDACS system, the conventional public safety frequencies for Daviess County and also the the 2 meter and 70cm repeaters in town.

For the Public Safety frequencies, I use a Radio Shack PRO-97. For the 2 meter and 70cm frequencies, I either use my Yaesu FT-60R, Icom IC-T7H, Icom IC-T8A or her Icom IC-H16.

Wow... I find that hard to believe...

 

[AJ4JM]

Another one from Jefferson County.

Good Afternoon,

The name is Steve and my call is AJ4JM - I live in the Iroquois park area between New Cut and Dixie highway. I am into airband and railroad monitioring, and as well, shortwave (utility monitoring) and ham radio. Not active on the air right now, (HF transceiver shortage at the moment) although I do listen in quite a bit. My shack has the following equipment - much of it is going to be sold soon to buy an Icom 7200 - that will solve that "on the air problem at the QTH!"

And last but not least, a Solarcon 10/11 meters for the Galaxy Base! Worked great on 10 - 20 meters with the 703's internal tuner when I had it inside the house - talked to a ham down in Florida on 10m QRP on that antenna. Also feed it through an antenna switch into the 8500 for a decent vertical shortwave antenna

Hey guys,

I'm brand spanking new to the digital world. I live in Beaver Dam, Ky and hope to monitor local police, fire, and KSP post 16, 2 and 4.
I just ordered a Pro- 2096 and a Antenna Craft ST2.

I don't have a clue what I've got into with the programming.

I've been monitoring on a BC700a for over 10 years. Past EMT, rescue and fire volunteer.

Hoping to learn more from you guys here and enjoy the scanning.
