Channel data: RadioReference county database (ctid 2496). Frequencies and tones change — we program what is current at build time.

The honest part: what you can’t hear

4 row(s) in the county database are digital (EMS, Schools Operations (Digital), Sheriff, Sheriff /EMS Dispatch) and will not come through on an analog scanner. Everything in the table above is in the clear. If the county moves dispatch to a digital or encrypted system, an analog scanner goes quiet — we update these pages when that happens.

Before you order, let us check your area

Most US counties still run analog on at least some public safety channels. A growing number have moved to encrypted or digital P25 systems that no analog scanner can receive — at any price.

Send us your zip code and we'll tell you honestly what's receivable where you live. We'd rather turn down a sale than ship you a radio that can't hear your county.
