SMARTSCANNER TIPS

There are literally hundreds of thousands of public safety

radio licenses in the United States. The editors of the

Uniden National Frequency Database have poured over

these records to provide you with the most accurate

possible download of frequencies for whichever area of the

country you desire. Because of the volume of data, and

because some systems operate on expired licenses or

digital radio systems (which are not included in the dataset

as they cannot be monitored), we cannot guarantee that

you will receive every active public safety frequency in your

area.

If you find any flaws in your data and you would like to offer

suggestions, please e-mail them to us at

[email protected] or mail them to us at

SmartScanner National Database, P.O. Box 610428,

Newton Highlands, MA 02468. Due to the volume of mail

we receive, you may not receive a reply.

The SmartScanner database downloads frequency and

trunking talk groups (if applicable for your area) to the

scanner using the following order:
1. All licenses within your zip code.
2. All licenses within your community (with more than one

zip code)
3. All your county licenses (such as County Sheriff)
4. All the licenses for all the communities within your

county (in random order).
5. Statewide licenses (such as Highway Patrol, state

forestry, DOT, but not trunking)
6. National licenses (such as common ambulance, marine,

and Family Radio Service channels).

Look at the web sites Uniden.com and Trunktracker.com

for further information. The downloads are not available

through the Internet at this time.
