Joseph;

Do you have a 'police/fire radio scanner' or are you referring in your
post,
"I have one of this with 14 channels (38 sub channels).." to a Family
Radio
Service(FRS)
transceiver and are you asking if a FRS can scan the fourteen (14)
channels
and/or the 38 CTCSS tone codes?

Some FRS transceivers are able to "scan" the channels just like a
police
radio scanner
and they may also search for the 38 sub audible tone codes CTCSS..

I haven't herd the CTCSS tone code feature used that much on Family
Service Radio channels. However the GMRS folks make extensive use of
CTCSS
for repeater control access and to share the frequencies with each other.
FRS may keep CTCSS turned "off" so they can
talk to other FRS and GMRS folks they may meet at larger events or while
on
the road.
Or it may be they don't have a clear understanding or need for CTCSS. Many
lower priced
FRS do not have CTCSS.

Several higher priced FRS transceivers can use Digital Tone Coded
Squelch . Which is used with some higher priced police radio scanners
also.
The Uniden BC 250 D has the 14 FRS channels preprogrammed into the it's
search feature! You can program them into a bank in
any radio scanner with frequency banks, then when you see FRS users just
bring up that bank!
