Yep! I was responding to something someone said about hearing specific radio traffic on a particular day in his? her?
local area in regards to a possible stolen car. If it could be narrowed down to a date and time frame that this supposed stolen car report/ BOLO went out the original broadcast could be located in the radio archives to verify that if it was in fact true. Saving the clip and sharing it here? Not sure if allowed. But from what I understand, even if the date/time was nailed down and shared- each person that wanted to listen may need a subscription to actually hear it if not.
Transmissions are usually searchable by the city name for the larger more urban areas. Where I live it's rural and often more complicated ie: our county 911 center primary dispatches on our county (name) sheriff's repeater frequency for (most) police business. It would listed under our county name. Our FIRE/EMS would be on a different frequency under county name as well. Whereas one of our neighboring counties has a city pd, state police county sheriff's dept, and even some FIRE traffic all sharing the same frequency. It's confusing and might be a useless wormhole anyway? Even if the radio transmission for said stolen car is located after extensive searching, there's DEF no guarantee there was a suspect's name known or provided and broadcast at that time. There may have only been a description of the vehicle, plate number, registered owners name and address and direction of travel if known.
