FIRST... I am not an experienced scanner person, so forgive my ignorance... I turn it on and plug in the freq and hope to hear something.
I use it to listen to local Fire / Police / Ambulance happenings in Kirkwood, Crestwood, Glendale, Webster area etc.. I used to be able to scan and get local police and fire frequencies, I even learned how to program Kirkwood Police 155.250 & Fire 154.370 frequencies into my scanner (yea me). Now I am getting nothing. I look online for the scanner frequencies and program and nothing all day long. I am wondering if a change makes my scanner useless or what... I don't have anything fancy... the scanner sits on my desk in my office, no extra antenna's. I have looked at the Frequencies listed on here <http://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/?ctid=1573> and plugged them in my scanner... nothing... I see this SLATER, Central County Emergency 911, East Central Dispatch Center... Is myu scanner no longer an option to pick up police / fire??
Any help, suggestions, directions would be greatly appreciated.
