Scanning Information

[raski]

Can anyone lead me to a good resource to find the frequencies used by local police, fire and service workers in a local munincipality?

The "Databases" button at the top of the page is a pretty good palce to start.

jonwienke is right. The databases on this site are probably the most comprehensive available and always being updated. In addition, the other information available is priceless.

Do... do you know where you are?

Yep, just as posted, top left of this page it has "Databases". Click it, then your home state, your county, etc.

Let's cut him a little bit of slack this time. He's obviously new to scanning and this web site. I suspect he Googled something and this forum popped up.

Um, he's been a member here for over a year.....

I'm voting with KK4JUG. Maybe vidtech has been a member for most of the past year, but he's posted (and maybe visited the site) a fraction of the time that others have. So, thank you jonwienke for a non-judgmental answer.

I may be changing my mind, Bob. I looked at some previous posts (there were only a couple or so) and it seems he arrived in this forum with a chip on his shoulder.

https://www.radioreference.com/apps/db/ Click on the state of interest, then the county.

You could also do an FCC license search, it is a little more cumbersome: License Search It gives only frequenices. If there is a trunked system, there is no talkgroup data there as such things are not of interest to the FCC.

The Radio Reference database is as good as it gets, though it is entirely dependent on user submitted information. The FCC license search may yield things that haven't been reported.

YES.

(Just strictly answering the OP's yes/no question.)

Thanks to those who gave me good direction. I got a good laugh from the judges and jury of the forum. I didn't know that just being a frequent reader and not a regular poster was a sin here. Perhaps those who took the time to only offer criticism should take a good hard look at themselves.

You're welcome. It's what we do.
