I live near the border of Shaker Heights and East 154th St., more commonly known as Cleveland's 4th District and I can tell you that there's plenty to listen to from all five of the districts that the Division of Police are tasked with keeping their eyes and ears on, at least on the dispatch side. Most of CPD's TAC frequencies are encrypted and the few that aren't really aren't worth listening to in the first place. That's not meant as a hit on the department as they really do an awesome job with what limited resources they have but listening to the towing channel gets boring really quick. Lol! As the mercury begins to climb, you'll hear a lot of action, especially after the sun goes down and at times, it can seem absolutely unreal. They operate on the Greater Cleveland Radio Communications Network, better known as GCRCN as does much of law enforcement throughout Cuyahoga County. Those agencies include East Cleveland, Euclid, Cleveland Heights, Shaker Heights, Richmond Heights, South Euclid, University Heights, Garfield Heights, Maple Heights, Bedford, Bedford Heights, Oakwood, Walton Hills and several others that I can't remember right off the to of my head. Most of the FD's in the county operate on the statewide system, better known as the Ohio Multi-Agency Radio Communications System or MARCS-IP. Several PD's in the county use the MARCS-IP system, such as Beachwood, Pepper Pike, Chagrin Falls, as well as several agencies that are planning on making the move to the newer P25 trunked system but remain on their legacy system as of this time. Again, I'm quite certain that I've missed a few FD's and PD's that are on the newer systems as well so the RR database is your best friend in searching out the action closest to you. You'll likely end up having to shift to one of the newer digital scanners that handle simulcast distortion much better than many of the legacy scanners going back more than just a few short years. However, that's not always the case as a great deal of it is dependent on where YOU are located in relation to the newer P25 sites. I'm not sure just what your approximate location is here in Cuyahoga County and even if I knew, I sure as hell wouldn't post it here on the forum. In short, it's a whole new world when it comes to public service scanners and far more in depth than in the past but don't get scared off by it's complexities. There are plenty of people on the RR forums that are willing to assist you. I'm only beginning to understand what these new systems are capable of and it's highly likely that I'll end up cashing in my chips long before I've even begun to feel comfortably acclimated with this stuff. Lol! Enjoy the ride while it lasts.
