This incident was also brought to you by an under programmed (obviously) UNIDEN BCD996T.

I have a lot of work to do. I am actually doing it now by working on spreadsheets from info off of the SWFD books

You lucky dog with your BCD996T, I first heard the incident on my RS Pro-97 then it ran out of batteris so I switched to the Motorola GP-68 UHF. Meanwhile the GP-68 VHF was picking up something going on in Tucson but for some reason here in Dove Mountain I don't get TPD Ch.3 all that clear so I couldn't understand what was going on.

I know what you mean. I move the scanner around a little with te stock telescope and all gets better. I need to get my discone up :)

DPS calling for Ranger (Helicopter) assistance

Also asking for Sherrif assitance

Hey there STiMULi -

I listened to this going on last night as well... I'm curious however, what frequency do you hear the Air traffic on? I have a few entered in the same bank as DPS - but, never heard any Air support.

Ranger was called out and gave support on D6. You may not have realized that they were there.

Did you hear any of the ETA reports?

I didn't hear any ETA's - but probably missed it (I had 2 scanners going at the same time) :)

I assume you're refering to District 6 (D6) - doesn't air support use the 123.x freqs (or is there a patch to DPS)?

Who the detectives feel may be the 2nd suspect is detained. Still looking for 3rd.

This is dispatched as a Kidnapping incident

TPD found knife and gun in vehicle

Officer lost site of vehicle at 25KM

He stated that this is a Subaru. If this is an STi it will take a radio to catch it.
(I own one)

I am no unsure of which vehicle they are looking for.

Ranger is been told to look for a

Black Mercedes PLATE: 418 VMY
Blue Impala (former Police officer)
Dodge Stratus

The above listed vehicles are related to a shooting in Nogales. 418 VMY The other vehicles may be in chase as they are related to the shooting.

Dispatch verified they are looking for Black Mercedes PLATE:418 VMY in this shooting

Ranger sees a black vehicle at Desert Diamond

I think they will have problems catching a Mercedes as well. I am not sure if DPS has any high speed pursuit vehicles but I am pretty sure the Charger SRT-8 police package would catch your STi I think the Vette's would have a good chance also.

What is the top speed of the SRT8 package? Mine is (was) speed limited at 155. If I were a bad guy and were to run and a Charger caught up to me all I woul ahev to to is make a turn or hit the brakes and it would be all over :)

TPD ROCKS!!!​

There was a robbery about 15 minutes ago (at presumed gunpoint) at a local Wienerschnitzel and within 5 minutes they had they bad guys under arrest.

The bad guys were in a car that ran from the seen. A witness IDed the plates and the car. At the moment the ATL (Attempt To Locate) went out the bad guys drove by an officer from another division. Moments later the bad guys were on the ground.

Now they are having a witness ID and attempting to find evidence.

I hope the bad guys have at least 15 Independence Days before they become Independent.

SRT-8 top speed is around 175 drag limited, and I believe the Charger can hang with the best of them. Suby STi's are fast but there is always something faster.

I do know a Charger SRT-8 will run lower than 5 seconds to 60 brake from 60 in 110 feet and do 0-100-0 in 16 seconds, I didn't look really hard but I didn't find and g numbers for the car I know a Subaru STi will do the same its just hard to find information on a stock one since everyone wants to see a modded one not a stock one.
