I am interested in purchasing a scanner to listen to the NYPD.
No, not because I’m a buff. But simply because I can. The same reason I own 14 guns. Do I need 14 guns? No. And you don’t “NEED” 6 hamburgers and 2 hotdogs every week either.
Getting back to the scanner. Can anyone help me out? How do I pick up the police on it?
I am not a troll, and was very serious about my question.
There are plenty of people who are interested in a multitude of hobbies. Not everyone is interested in arguing about whose rabbi is bigger, and if there is allowed to be a State of Israel or not.
Now that we cleared that up, are there any folks out there who have any info on this topic, which I find quite intriguing?
There isn’t one specific frequency for the entire NYPD. Each zone has their own frequency. For a listing of all the Zones + Frequencies please visit http://www.n2nov.net/nypd_ems.html
Also, before use of a police scanner, it would be wise to learn all the laws regarding a scanner (i.e. having a scanner in a car is illegal)
