New Online Scanner Site

[Citywide173]

Online Scanner.com has been brought online to provide one-stop listening for people looking for online public safety audio.

It features two types of audio-those with their own page and feed hosted exclusively or semi-exclusively on the site, or links to other sites with audio feeds. Currently, the semi-exclusive feeds include Boston EMS and the Greater Providence area scanner. Coming online early this evening (1/7/04) will be an exclusive Boston Police feed and an exclusive Boston Fire feed should be online by 1800 on Sunday the 11th.

We are looking for people to help with the belief that lilstening to online public safety audio should be free, and to host a feed. It's a lot easier than it sounds, and all that is needed is a cable/DSL modem, scanner and computer with a sound card. Info on how to host your feed is on the site.

As of today, (2/4/04), a page with a dedicated Boston Fire feed is now online, featuring audio from all 5 BFD channels. This is the result of a generous donation of 2 computers. The second computer will go online with a live feed of Boston area notification networks (Citywide & MRS) as soon as I get my hands on another UHF radio.

For those of you that haven't yet visited,Online Scanner.com features dedicated live feeds of Boston Police, Boston EMS, Boston Fire and a feed of the Greater Providence area fire departments, as well as links to over 50 other live free feeds.

We are looking for volunteers to host feeds from their area, in particular, I would like to get some feeds up from areas that have recently had their existing feeds transition to paid access (Chicago, San Diego, Las Vegas, etc.)
