Important Notes
The embedded player uses HTML5, with Adobe Flash as a fallback. It should work on mobile devices and tablets. It has been tested successfully on an iPad and Samsung Android tablet. If the player does not work for you, try one of the six icons below the player to see if they do the trick.

Related Information
10 Codes:
The police and emergency services personnel speak using 10 codes. This makes communications more concise. The best known codes are "10-4" meaning "OK, I understand" and "What's your 10-20?" as in "where are you at now?" In order to follow the conversations, you will need to know the codes. A reference sheet is available here.
Players:
- Each feed now has an HTML5-based player that should work on most modern devices, including mobile. For the non-technical folks, most players in the past were Adobe Flash based. Flash is going away for many reasons and it not supported on many mobile devices. HTML5 audio/video is supposed to be the modern solution.
- We have successfully tested the HTML5 player on an iPad and Samsung Android tablet. Since the page now has a responsive design, you won't have any problem viewing it on any device, even phones.
- We left the old Flash-based players from Broadcastify (formerly RadioReference) since they show the server status and number of listeners.
- There are also links to config files for each stream so you can play it on your iTunes, Windows Media player, or Real player, if you prefer it that way.
