Ohio Online Scanner Project

[jasonk]

As soon as we can identify a feed Host. It sounds like there might be some Great Listening on the new System .... If anyone would be willing to plug their Scanner into their computer and share with all of us just let us know ....It is simple to set up.

Columbiana County Fire

 

[digitalanalog]

Looking for someone to stream Columbiana County Sheriff.
Now digital.

Big tactical deal just happened in East liverpool
and only herd what Liverpool had on dispatch (not much).

Really need the Columbiana County SO stream.

 

[mtindor]

What sucks is the absurd number of sites that would need to be monitored in order to effectively cover Columbiana Co SO...

228 East Liverpool
229 Lisbon
230 East Palestine
231 Salem (Mahoning) - possibly
459 Stratton (Jefferson) - possibly
461 Dellroy (Carroll) - possibly

I hear Columbiana SO a lot, on the East Liverpool site. But that leads me to wonder how much more I'd hear them if I were monitoring all of the sites listed above. As it stands now, I monitor 5 Jefferson Co sites and East Liverpool.

So I could potentially do it once I get my attic antenna up (which I'm currently working on). I simply cannot listen to either E Palestine or Lisbon, I forget which, because the control channel of that particular site is interfered with by a stronger data signal nearby from some other MARCS site which isn't an actual control channel or voice data.

So even if I were to attempt to, it would only be partial coverage.

i dont think the ashtabula county feed is working, whenever i listen to it i dont pick up anything other then trumbull county. can somebody investigate for me?

I am not sure what is so absurb about marcs covering Columbiana County with so many sites. As long as you can hear one Columbiana County site out of the several, you will be able to monitor all communications from Columbiana SO. MARCS is a multi-site system, so as long as one radio has recently affiliated with that site you will be able to monitor Columbiana SO with no problem. I drove through Columbiana County once, and the OSP 15 main talkgroup could be monitored with no problem on Salem, Lisbon, E Palestine, and E Liverpool sites. OSP 15 could even be frequently monitored as far north as the Youngstown-Campbell site.

Message me off-list if you have questions...jmsanders83@gmail.com

That is only correct if a unit is affiliated with each tower in Columbiana Co on that particular talkgroup - I think it rarely happens that there is a different unit of COlumbiana Co SO affiliated with a different tower in the area - it could happen, but it's not routine. Yes, they are multisite - but no they are not simulcast. The only way you'd hear _all_ SO traffic by listening to a single site is if the Columbiana County sites were simulcast _or_ all of the active radios for the talkgroup you are listening to are affiliated with the one tower that you are listening to. If you have 10 OSP units sitting in a McDonalds in Salem, you won't be hearing them on the East Liverpool tower _unless_ there is a radio currently affiliated with the East Liverpool site on that talkgroup.

Some people want to know beforehand what they can expect if they want to try, and I am just letting them know that they'd have to cover a number of sites. I'm also letting them know why my coverage of the East Liverpool tower won't give adequate coverage of Columbiana Co SO. I see a lot of people provide a feed for a county and then tear it down within a week because it isn't as effective as they like, isn't listened to as much as they would like, or is too much of a burden to provide good coverage of that agency.

I didn't say it was absurd to try and cover it - I said it was absurd the # of sites you need to put in if you want to provide full coverage. I'm not against the absurd. After all, I cover MARCS Jefferson Co (that's 5 sites in the County + East Liverpool + one or two others at times).

Streaming on my website

Can anyone help me get a live stream on scannerantennasource.com website?

My options are
Flash
Music (mp3)
Rss Feed
Script

Any help would be greatful

I would like to have the live stream playing in the background on the site.
Thanks
Jim

 

[digitalanalog]

Anyone?

 

[mtindor]

Anyone?

Is the stream that you want on your site already being streamed somewhere else (like scanamerica)?

If so, I can help you - assuming you don't mind something halfassed like what I have at http://www.ovscan.com. The embedded jazz I have there acts differently depending on the browser - works fine in IE, but in Firefox people have eto have a plugin in order to play it. That may not be what you want.

Mike

 

[digitalanalog]

No it's NOT being streamed.

 

[digitalanalog]

but i can stream it

 

[digitalanalog]

I know when i was streaming before and then dropped that i took some hashing because of it.
(look around in this forum, you will find it).

So , i understand that those who can help would be less then willing to help because i dropped the ball before on scanamaerica.

That's o.k.

I will look around and do more homework (on hosting/streaming sites) and figure it out for myself.
Hell maybe i'll just start my own stream hosting site, can't be that bad.....

Bitter?.....Yeah a little bit..................
loosing sleep over it.......Nope.....

Think it better to just fade into the night.................

 

[mtindor]

Yeah you are bitter - but don't be bitter at Gordon - be bitter at the yahoo(s) who were giving you **** because of your stream.

Sure, you could stream it yourself, but typically you've got to stream it somewhere before you can put it on your site. Or if you have a static IP address on your home connection (or a dynamic and use something like dyndns.org to map a static hostname to it) you could then set up your own shoutcast/edcast/icecast or whatever and then pull then reference that audio on your website.

Start another streaming place? Won't be successful - don't bother. There are enough around, and one that does it better than the rest (SA). If you can't/won't stream to SA then you do have the alternative of doing it yourself and putting it on your webpage. But why make everyone suffer for one person's (or a few people's) idiocy?

At any rate, I'm not going to preach - I understand how you can become disgruntled. I've seen others become disgruntled because somebody wasn't happy with the feed they provided. Just get over it and don't pay attention to the idiots. And if you choose to use some other method besides a stream to scanamerica, more power to you and I wish you well - and I'd help you get a streaming feed going for you to embed on your website regardless, as long as you were using software I'm familiar with.

I am not sure what the beef is ....I remember you had sent me an e-mail that said you were pulling your feed down because of some forum posts at RR ....I went to the forums and didn't understand what you were referencing. I wasn't aware that this was still an issue ....If you enjoy providing the feed, Scan America is the perfect opportunity. Gordon asks for nothing in return, and alot of folks get to enjoy your contribution. If someone wants to ***** about it just ignore them. Life is too Short ..... Get your Feed Back Online so we can enjoy it ....and then your problem will be solved with the other site ....

Hapopy New Year To All !!!

I am a college student, so I monitor many counties and agencies on a regular basis.

While at college (West Liberty, WV), I monitor Belmont County, OH. When I am at home (Coshocton, OH), I monitor Coshocton County, OH. I noticed these are both not on the list, but I don't think I can provide a perma-stream for them. I MIGHT be able to setup a dedicated Coshocton scanner, since they use all analogue, non-trunking frequencies.

I appreciate the site, I am now a listener to some counties within my proximity! I have a Pro96 that I monitor with, so I couldn't use that as a perma-stream device--it goes with me everywhere! I monitor Ohio County, Marshall County, and Brooke County, WV. That includes Wheeling PD!

I'll keep monitoring this thread and do what I can--college makes you BROKE!!
