About Phoenix Police Frequencies
- 5 conventional channels are analog FM, so any scanner can receive them. Enter the frequency and set the tone shown in the table.
- 2 conventional channels use a digital mode (P25), which needs a scanner that decodes that mode.
- Trunked radio systems that carry law-enforcement traffic here: Arizona Wireless Integrated Network System (AZ WINS): 3 talkgroups; Regional Wireless Cooperative (RWC): 41 talkgroups; Federal Correctional Institution Phoenix: 12 talkgroups; Flagstaff NAU ASU P25 (Project 25): 8 talkgroups; and 5 more. A trunking scanner is required, and it must support the system type shown.
- To follow a trunked system, program a control channel first. For Phoenix, start with the North Mountain High site of Regional Wireless Cooperative (RWC), about 1 miles away. Its control channels: 769.28125, 769.53125, 769.78125 MHz.
- 69 listed entries are marked encrypted. No scanner can decode encrypted audio.

What do these numbers mean?
- Control channel
- The frequency your scanner listens to first. It tells the scanner where each voice call is happening, so program it before anything else.
- Voice
- The other frequencies the site uses for calls. A trunking scanner follows them automatically once it has the control channel.
- Site
- One tower location of the system. Scanners show the number in decimal or hex, so both are listed.
- RFSS (Radio Frequency Sub-System)
- A group of sites run by the same controller. Large Project 25 systems can have several.
- NAC (Network Access Code)
- A hex code the site transmits. Your scanner can use it to ignore other systems on the same frequency.
- Talkgroup
- A virtual channel on a trunked system, such as one agency’s dispatch. Programming uses the decimal or hex number, depending on your scanner.
