Help Talk of the Sound by Following Local Police & Fire Scanner Frequencies

Written By: Robert Cox

If you would like to help Talk of the Sound cover breaking news in New Rochelle, you can either buy a radio scanner or listen to scanner traffic on the web. A scanner is the best way but the web and mobile phone options are free. The main online source for scanner traffic is Broadcastify.

They have links to local scanner frequencies:

New Rochelle Fire Department

New Rochelle Police Department (this feed can be up or down and is not always available)

Westchester County Police

New York State Police Troop K

There are several mobile apps that support Broadcastify

Broadcastify Apple/iPhone/iPad Mobile Applications

Broadcastify Android Mobile Applications

My preferred app is Scanner Radio Deluxe for iPhone

The best way to share information from the scanner frequencies is Twitter.

Open a Twitter account (let us know so we can follow you) and use the hashtag #NRTalkScanner when you begin posting an incident.
