WRYD269 Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 Hello all, I just purchased a Wouxun KG935G plus. Thanks to Not a Rubicon reviews. Just learning how everything works. Can I listen to my local emergency frequencies? Are they blocked on radios? I barely hear any action on my radio out of the box. I bought it mainly to keep on my jeep when I head out to the trails. (Newbie here). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OffRoaderX Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 You should be able to listen to your emergency frequencies as long as they are within the freq-range that the 935 can pick up, and are analog signals.

WRYD269 Posted August 20, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 I haven't been able to hear anything. I'm in the Santa Clarita area. I'm gonna keep messing with it. I'll get better eventually. love watching your videos on YouTube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRHS218 Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 If I remember correctly the city of Santa Clarita doesn't have a police department. They have a Los Angelas County Sheriff's Department substation there, Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station. If it is still that way then their radios are above 480.0000 MHz which puts them out of the range of the KG-935G Plus. Hopefully someone can give you a more up to date answer. The KG-935G Plus is a fun radio either way. WRXB215 and WRUU653 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRYD269 Posted August 20, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 You are correct, SCV has Sheriff's Department. I just want to be informed of what's happening around my surroundings. when I hear sirens or see a helicopter flying around my area.

In my area LEO and Fire all still use VHF and I listen on the 935G. A few small towns are using UHF in the 460's. Unfortunately LA county is using UHF that we can't get on the 935G. Good luck.
