Got the app on my phone. Good fodder to help me sleep.
2021 starting ok, don't know anyone arrested. 2020, I averaged about 1 a week in Q1 on it.

Nope.
My ol lady texts me chit like I care.
I dont.
Her job technically makes her take on first responder stuff should bad things happen when shes around.
And shes had to help some folks off and on.
Good for her.
I dont need to hear about it.

After being paid to for 25 years, no. Immediate source of stress that I don't miss.

Nope. 12 hours a day of it is enough for me.
Deadlines and commitments, what to leave in, what to leave out...

Maybe in Podunk your’s still works
All ours have been scrambled due heavy Jose and Groid monitoring. My old scanner is useless now
Some of the online feeds are interesting.

Scanner radio app. Can listen to feeds from across the country and around the world. Ham, police, air, marine, rail, etc. You can even set alerts so it notifies you if a certain number of listeners log on (presumably because of something happening). It is reliant on internet but you get to listen to stuff across the world from the best scanner technology.

Being a volunteer firefighter/first responder and on call 24/7, the last thing I want to do is monitor a scanner. I do have the sheriff's office, all the fire depts. in the parish, and the ground/air ambulance services on my radio, but I keep it off until I need it.

There is a website that you can listen to almost any public radio traffic. The name escapes me but someone here will remember.

Given that the service is free, you have to listen to a 15-30 second co0mmercial each time you start it up... https://m.broadcastify.com/listen/feed/30058

Nope. I have four radios at work. I don't want to use them when I have to.

I use the app on the phone, throw in the headphones and listen to it when I'm watching a baseball game, hear some great stuff out of Chitcago.
