Top Five... maybe for super large events/power black outs/The big Earthquake...

1.) Ham Radio Frequencies (Analog & DMR ,etc)
2.) Commercial Radio Systems(Fisher Wireless DMR Con+) etc.
3.) Local frequencies in your area (Mall Security, Hospital)
4.) Airports/Aircraft
5.) The trunked system for your local Casino you visit :)
6.) Watching aircraft fly over your area with your own ADS-B receiver box.

Thanks Brian, I like your list. Do i have to enter all the frequencies into the scanner to listen or can I just roam around and receive them?

It’s better to program the trunked system(Fisher Wireless, Casino, Zoo, Sea World, etc) fully into the scanner. To track the talkgroups better.

1. Santee Sheriff
2. Heartland Fire
3. CHP El Cajon Dispatch

Heartland Fire dispatch sounds like a computer generated voice now
