Most calls are medical calls like that. You're going to be listening for a long time if you want something exciting, and even then, they change channels
Most associate scanners with cops as if they are some sort of super crime group keeping tabs on them. Their channels are usually more active and entertaining.
Do you guys think I could pick up the cops on this thing? It's a 30 Channel 10 band radio scanner, Uniden Bearcat. Lmao! We need to rescue you from all these dirty dirty drugs!
I have a vhf transciever in my truck with all the police and fire frequiencies programed into it, I'm in search and rescue. And yes sometimes I listen to the county sheriffs channel on the radio just for fun.
Oh my god, this reminds me of the most memorable call. When I was in college, apparently some transformer went out and we lost power. We kept hearing sirens so we turned on my friends scanner. About 5 min in, we hear about this woman who overdosed on benifiber
Why? It's really not entertaining. No one wants to hear about an old person having a stroke, a guy having a heart attack, etc. It's a morbid sense of entertainment, really. Are you waiting to hear about a death or something? That's pathetic, guy.
It's bad to know what's going on in your community? Hey medic dude, where you working out of? Pm me if you don't want to post on the forum
