Beginning soon, Jefferson County will start the transition to a new radio system for fire, police, and EMS. The system will be shared with several other agencies, including Guilfoyle and LifeNet, all having separate channels. A typical analog scanner will not work on this system, meaning most scanner listeners will require an upgrade in order to keep listening. For more information about this system, click here.
