![]() The folks at Scanner Master carry a "National Highway Patrol Reference Guide" , here's a book that deals with highway patrols. It may have information that your looking for and may supplement other on line sources. http://www.scannermaster.com/store/01-680767.html And they publish several regional frequency guides for: Chargoland Philadelphia DC Delaware Maryland New York NJ Also, Massachusetts with New England states are covered! The have squelch tone code data! Another frequency book that covers all the states is "Monitor America" published by Scanner Master It gives frequencies state by state. The first section in each listing goes over the state police, their frequencies and the locations of the different troops. It also has squelch tone code data for many agencies! Some trunking information is listed also mostly with no talk groups. In any of the source you look at they may still list VHF low band, VHF High band and UHF conventional frequencies along with 800/900 MHz trunking frequencies and system information. If a state has trunking there may be little or now activity on the conventional frequencies. Another aspect of traveling around the interstate system here in america are laws banning police radio scanners, check your state(s) he http://www.afn.org/~afn09444/scanlaws/ If your don't have a separate CB radio transceiver and if your scanner will cover 27.185 MHz AM then add CH 19 into your scanner! There are limitations on CB radio traffic and it gets boring. But some times you can really get a good traffic report over the CB channel, that just isn't available any where else! If you have a portable general coverage short wave radio receiver that will go up to 27 Megs then us this in the vehicle to monitor CB CH 19. With either a scanner or short wave radio you can listen to "out banders" above and below the 40 channels of a stock CB radio, around 26.5 MHz and up to 27.5 Mhz Get a external magnetic mount antenna for ALL your after market radios DO NOT US a SPLITTER or "T" connector to run one (1) antenna to a CB tranceiver (or any other transceiver-transmitter) and a police scanner. However shareing one (1) antenna with two or more receivers is O. K. but, you may find they interfere with each other locking up the scanning with internal oscillations going over the patch co-ax cable, to the other radio! jim BillyThe Squid wrote: I drive the interstates and I am looking for a site that has the freqs. used by state police/Highway patrol so I can monitor road conditions, accidents, etc as I drive. I only need freqs. for the roads I'm driving. Can anyone help? Thanks much! |
