if you're hearing something (especially buy busts) DO NOT POST THE FREQUENCY AND SAY WHEN IT'S HAPPENING.

thats a really bad idea... officers could become endangered if some smart drug dealer read it online and decided to "take care" of the officers.

it's ok to post frequencies, just don't say when they're doing buy busts.

criminals arn't that smart, people who buy drugs are even less smart. And if someone had the thought to search the internet to find out if there was a drung bust going on in their area they might already be high, or in the slim chance the criminal has half a brain, they have their own scanner and are already aware...

He is correct and it is a possibility scanner use could be involved. Regardless, it's just nice to wait a day after it happens. Generally real-time information is frowned upon in most scanner communities. You have to think of the officers in this case.

I work in Law Enforcement and find your first two comments completely incorrect. YOu want to know how many crack heads I run into that have scanners and listen on a daily basis? The answer is many.

that was my point. if they have a scanner they already know... who searches the internet for "drug busts in my area".?
