What are you trying to listen to? Since Law and Fire are encrypted, you aren't going to hear much.

Someday, we're told, they will remove encryption from Orange Co Fire comms. Supposedly, it is in the works, but it's been months. I hear it is a complex process. In the meantime, there are scanner streaming apps for your phone that will receive the OCFA.

For SBCoFD all depends on where you are in LA for which site might work. Make sure you have the service types on that you want to scan turned on. That is a easy mistake for the *36 and SDS scanners.
