: : : As much as it pains me, I'm moving from Seattle to Tacoma this week. Can somebody provide me with helpful information to monitor local radio traffic in the Tacoma area? I'm particularly interested in Tacoma P.D. frequencies, a beat map and any terminology or codes they use that differ from the norm. : : : It almost seems a shame to use a perfectly good trunking scanner to monitor a non-trunked system. : : : One additional question ... does anyone know if it's possible to monitor Seattle P.D. from Tacoma? Perhaps using ValleyCom sites or something similar ... oh please tell me they reach that far. : : : Thanks much, : : : B'jouh : : : bjouh@yahoo.ca : : I live in Tacoma. you can get vallycom but... it only simucasts the primary channels, no tac's and it comes in scratchy most of the time. : you can also get the columbia site. (at least from the front room in my house) agean, very scratchy if it picks up the data channel at all. : Tacoma PD___________________ : North Primary 460.150 : Tac 1 460.300 : South Primary 460.050 : Tac 2 453.225 : Records 460.350 : Tac 3 453.425 nights/weekend only (shared channel) : ____________________________ : WSP West 155.520 : WSP East 155.740 : WSP car to car 154.905 used in Tacoma area : WSP air patrol 159.075 used @ nisqually I-5 (and) 512 at Canyon : ____________________________ : Tacoma fire : f-1 154.130 : f-2 155.190 : f-3 154.295 : ____________________________ : Pierce county fire : countywide disp. 153.890 various other channels for county : PCS : West disp 155.640 f1 : East disp 154.950 f2 : admin W 155.710 aux f3 : admin E 155.610 f4 : other ? 155.310 : countywide records 156.090 other muni's also use this. : mars 155.190 : ____________________________ : St. Joe security 155.280 : Puyallup PD 158.745 : Puyallup PD 155.130 : Fife PD 155.490 : Milton 155.010 : Sumner PD 154.785
