Today so called reality shows are staged for my taste. Your artificial situations and actions semi-script actually make it slightly less than the real one.

For unvarnished reality, try listening to a police scanner. You will hear real police response to calls real crime. It feels as police chief in potentially dangerous situations. You can hear the police dispatcher, as everyone tries to avoid the Fender Benders shootings – all in a night of standardsWorking for many police departments.

When police released the first scanner, bought my mother so she could hear what has happened in their city, and to hear, especially if something bad was reported in their neighborhood.

I remember late at night, from one day to sitting on her kitchen table comes with the scanner in research. Sure, she was worrying about where I was and I feel if there were wrecks.

When my brother was a policeman,My mother had nothing to fear really is – and to hear an apology from the police radio all day.

Police scanners are not just for diehard professional, though. Many people feel as a hobby. , Radio and TV journalists to listen to them to prevent accidents Get the first word of a great crime, or they may quickly at the scene.

Nowadays not even need a scanner for police in many cities the police are called to listen. There are hundreds offeeding live radio streamed over the Internet police. There is also the fire department radio feeds as well. All you do is click on a link to the city of your choice and start listening.

This evening, I listened for about an hour to the feed police live in my hometown, a city of medium size with a normal share of crime and other human conflicts. During this time, I felt the police response calls for an attack, a stolen car, a home burglary attempted to answer, and someone who wasthreatening his neighbor with a knife.

A number of existing web sites, who links to police scanners in the United States. Two are good and policescan.us scanner.info police.

Policescan.us scanner has more links – the fire and police – but it is disorganized, and to be honest, looking pretty junky. However, it is worth a visit just for the large number of scanner feeds.

scanner.info police is also a site rather confused, but his list is very Scannercleaner and better organized. Since the list was ordered, it is easier to find a particular town or link to Radio City police.
