I am grateful to see this feed up in Lancaster county, as I can listen on my Android phone while I am out and about running errands.

I have a complaint however, and would like to work with the feed provider. My complaint? There are too many agencies on this feed that it is impossible to follow a full conversation. As an example, one moment I may be listening to a foot pursuit, only to jump to animal control, and then another jump to janitors at Lincoln East High talking about fixing a shower head in the locker room, and then another jump back to LPD channel 50 for a license check (I am not certain but I don't think these transmissions are actually permitted as a feed).

I am in most interested in listening to dispatch calls for the Police and Fire departments. To me, anything above and beyond those channels of interest are over load. Don't take me wrong, I'm not *****ing nor attacking you, I just wish for an easier to listen feed.

You would also do well to review the feed terms of service. You have some transmissions in the feed, that simply should not be there according to feed terms. As I mentioned before, you have channel 50 in your feed, which I believe is not permitted. I'd sure hate to see this feed lost because of term violations.

Further, as I mentioned you have school janitors talking about projects in the schools. Again, to the best of my knowledge, this is not permitted, along with dedicated SWAT and/or stake out channels. Aside from these minor complaints I love the feed, but would it be possible to trim some of the excess from the feed?

I'd be willing to provide a law enforcement only feed for the county if you desire to carry the other stuff that is on your feed. Perhaps we can work together and provide some awesome feeds to the listeners. Let me know what you think.

I wonder if it's the same guy who has the feed over at livecbradio.com, my only complaint with that feed was pretty much the exact same it covered everything and there was no delay in the talkgroups so you could never follow a conversation. I was told awhile ago that he wasn't going to add a delay to any of the talkgroups because he picks up more traffic without a delay, which may be true but it's impossible to follow a full conversation or incident.

Sounds like he just wants a really active feed that talks non-stop.

Best feed setup is dispatch tg/frequencies, and any tac channel they may use while en-route or on-scene. Information(license plate checks, ect. .) or non- LE/FD stuff is overboard. Personally I have three separate feeds to keep everything separate and neat. I could just easily run all three feeds off a scanner, but then we run into the problem described above.

Feed owner is Ronda from Raymond fire.
She is using a rs scanner that's program by them to pick everything on the ed system.
