scanner not working franklin pa
By the ZIP code the OP is referring to the city of Franklin in Venango county.I assume the Franklin Co portion of this system is what you want to monitor: South Central Interoperability Network Trunking System, Steelton, Pennsylvania - Scanner Frequencies
Police are fully encrypted and cannot be received by any scanner. Fire/EMS and other govt agencies are open to monitor. We need to know the model of your scanner and your programming software to be able to help you. If you attach your programming file, we can check it for any problems. If scanner was working previously, it quit because all of the talkgroup ID's have changed since moving to the South Central Interoperability Network.
Majority of that area uses conventional VHF/UHF so any scanner should pick that up. Venango Co. mainly uses VHF while neighboring Clarion and Mercer uses UHF.
To the south Butler Co. is on ICORRS however from Franklin you are going to be too far north to probably hear a tower.
Slightly more info from the op would be helpfulscanner not working franklin pa

Did the scanner work recently?
Does it not turn on?
AC adapter plugged in (working properly)/Batteries shot?
Can you pick up NOAA WX?
LCD display settings?
Did the scanner/user just move to Franklin and needs programming?
Did the area change frequencies lately?
Did it miraculously fix itself?
