Police beating up homeless woman and stealing her stuff. MAGA community backing police and random man that put his hand on a woman

Roseburg Oregon. Roseburg Police department should be ashamed. They have no empathy or compassion and see anyone different than them as not people worthy of anything. Help me find the random man that took this as an opportunity to put his hands on a fragile suffering woman so he could feel inferior and important. Why are the cops not yelling at him for obstruction? Make it make sense

Newbie to scanners. Need help knowing what to purchase for my area.

I would like to purchase a lower budget scanner that is easy enough to figure out for someone completely new to scanners. I want to be able to listen to Police scanners. I live in Ontario California. Can someone help me figure out which scanner would be a best option for where I live please. And / or dumb it up when explaining what I need to look for and best place to find it. Thanks.

Question

How should someone report to law enforcement if they believe they have experienced directed energy weapon attacks, similar to those associated with the historical Moscow Signal incident? What information should be included in the police report?

Web App to control SDS100 and share a Scan Session!

Hi, greetings from Argentina. I've been a radio enthusiast since I was a kid and, like many of you here, I've been using the SDS100 for years with software on my PC.

A while back I started developing ScanSDS (scansds.online), a web app to control and monitor the SDS100 directly from the browser, with nothing to install. The idea came from a personal need: being able to run the scanner from any computer, without depending on Windows, and also access it remotely when I'm not physically next to the unit.

Some of what the platform does today:

Full scanner control over USB from the browser, using Chrome's Web Serial API (volume, squelch, hold, scan, avoid, direct entry — everything you'd expect from the physical panel).
Remote sessions: share your scanner with a 6-character code and different access levels, from "listen only" to full control — great if you want someone to follow the scanner without touching anything, or to run it yourself from your phone when you're away. Remote clients can join even from Safari on iPhone or iPad, no install needed.
Live audio and display streamed in real time to anyone who joins the session.
Favorites editor with a System → Department → Channel tree, real-time search, cloud backup, and direct write-back to the scanner's SD card.
Activity log with filters, grouping, and CSV export.
Auto Scan: sweeps a frequency range on its own, stops on active frequencies, and logs every hit.
Several visual presets (including a night vision mode and an amber CRT one, for those of us who miss old-school displays).
Bilingual tutorial (English/Spanish) to get started without hassle.

For the host (the PC connected to the scanner), you'll need Chrome, Edge, or Opera — the browsers that support Web Serial. Remote clients can join from any modern browser.

I'd like to invite everyone to try it free for 3 days, just by signing in with your Google account, no payment method required. After the trial it's $5/month if you want to keep going — cancel anytime.

Any comments, suggestions, or bugs you find are welcome. Feedback from people who actually use the SDS100 day to day is invaluable. Thanks in advance for your interest and for giving it a try.

(apparent) newbie needs help.

Firstly, I want to apologize for not knowing more about these scanners and all the different methodologies used to deliver the broadcasts. I've done some digging over the last year or so and have not been able to come up with a means to listen to my local emergency services frequencies.

I have looked on radio reference for my area and I see no reason why my radio (home patrol ii) can no longer pick up signals in my area (43351- Wyandot county).

It was working fine a year or so ago.

Does it take a while (long while perhaps) for the database to reflect changes to my area?

Would anyone have a chance to review my county and see if my radio is even able to receive them please
