Police TAC-Scanners

[joshua]

on the premise that i had no idea that these channels were encrypted IRL, i disagree with TAC channels being picked up by a scanner

but the base SD & PD frequencies (911 for PD, idk what it is for SD), should be something we can buy scanners for, with a delay of however long makes sense (like a minute or smthn would be fine)

Aren't police frequencies encrypted most of the time?

Absolutely not. The Police has a lot of tools they'd have IRL disabled, 'realism' has no business in this conversation as long as facial recognition is disabled on this server set in 2022.

I think the biggest problem with this suggestion is that if such a thing existed every single criminal RPer would just tune directly into the station when they suspect they'll get into a pursuit. Pretty rare for criminals in the real world to be toting around police scanners because as was said before TAC channels are encrypted but also it just wouldn't be that useful. In the real world pursuits don't go 120+ mph through city streets you'd have traffic to contend with. Just wouldn't functionally be a great idea sadly.
