What are some common police radio frequencies?

In general, police frequencies are allocated in the bandwidth of 153.785 to 155.980 MHz. Other common frequencies include 42.020 to 42.940 MHz, 44.620 to 46.580 MHz, and 460.0125 to 460.6375 MHz notes RadioShack. Local police frequencies vary.

Radio frequencies are split up depending on the location you are in and what other frequencies are being utilized, notes RadioReference. It is also possible to purchase a police scanner, which can inform you of the local police radio frequencies. Though it is a common belief, personal ownership of a police scanner is not illegal and can allow you to access information on local police bandwidths, says Police-Scanner.info.
