San Antonio, Texas
[edit] Overview
Most agencies that are part of the City of San Antonio use the San Antonio / Bexar County EDACS ProVoice system. However, there are a number of smaller agencies in the area that use conventional frequencies for public safety or other services.
[edit] City of San Antonio
All San Antonio Police, Fire, EMS, and City services uses the San Antonio / Bexar County EDACS ProVoice trunked system.
[edit] San Antonio Police Department
SAPD uses the following site frequencies exclusively on the system, which is the site called "BLUE" - however ALL SAPD communications are in EDACS ProVoice mode. There have been some noted communications in analog mode by dispatchers only, usually by a mistake by the dispatchers. You will typically never be able to monitor any SAPD communications with a scanner, since ProVoice digital modulation is not supported by any scanner today.
