About Herald Police Frequencies
- 19 conventional channels are analog FM, so any scanner can receive them. Enter the frequency and set the tone shown in the table.
- 4 conventional channels use a digital mode (P25), which needs a scanner that decodes that mode.
- Trunked radio systems that carry law-enforcement traffic here: Sacramento Regional Radio Communications System (SRRCS) P25 (Project 25): 239 talkgroups. A trunking scanner is required, and it must support the system type shown.
- To follow a trunked system, program a control channel first. For Herald, start with the Richard McGee Training Center site of California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, about 5 miles away. Its control channels: 858.2625, 859.2625 MHz.
- 50 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.
