A large portion of public safety communications in Arapahoe County will be found on the APCO Project 25 State of Colorado Digital Trunked Radio System (DTRS).
Exceptions exist for areas that are part of the City of Aurora which operates on Aurora and special cases dealing with agencies on Denver.
Although some conventional frequencies can be found in the database, many are rarely used on a normal basis.

Fire Department

A specific map of the fire direct boundaries can be found here (PDF).
Dispatch for these agencies are split between 3 communications centers.
Aurora Fire Rescue
Aurora Fire Rescue is dispatched by the Aurora Public Safety Communications Department on Aurora. Aurora Fire Rescue is in charge of fire protection for all areas within the boundaries of the City of Aurora. Aurora Fire Rescue requires a P25 Phase 2 capable scanner in order to monitor. They are dispatched on Dispatch (Aurora TG 39101) and respond on any of their tactical talkgroups, most often Tac 2 (Aurora TG 39102) for routine calls, Tac 3 (Aurora TG 39103) for fire alarm calls, and the other Tacs for major incidents.
Denver Fire Department
Denver Fire Department is dispatched by Denver Fire Dispatch on Denver. Denver Fire Department provides fire protection for the City of Englewood, City of Glendale, City of Sheridan, and parts of unincorporated Arapahoe County surrounded by the City. Areas covered by the Denver Fire Department are split into 8 districts and a map of these districts can be found here. Districts that cover parts of Arapahoe County include District 3, District 4, and District 7. Denver Fire Department is mostly encrypted, however the Denver Fire Department VocAlarm (154.070 MHz/Denver TG 35426) can still be monitored for some initial dispatches. The VocAlarm on the Denver trunked radio system (Denver TG 35426) requires a P25 Phase 2 capable scanner, but a basic scanner will be able to monitor the VHF VocAlarm (154.070 MHz).
If the needed unit is in quarters at the station, dispatch will be aired on the VocAlarm (154.070 MHz/Denver TG 35426). The dispatch information is commonly repeated on Channel 1 (Denver TG 35426) after the unit goes en route to the scene which is encrypted and cannot be monitored. If the unit is out and on the air, then the call will typically be aired on Channel 1 and may not be heard on the VocAlarm. Channel 1 can sometimes be heard patched to the VHF VocAlarm (154.070 MHz) only, but all station dispatches are prioritized and will override the Channel 1 patched audio.
All major incidents are automatically assigned a tactical channel based on the district is located in on dispatch. Each district has five tactical channels assigned to it that share the same numbering as the districts. For example, District 3 incident will get one of the Tac 3 talkgroups and a District 7 incident will get one of the Tac 7 talkgroups. These talkgroups are encrypted and cannot be monitored.
MetCom
South Metro Fire Rescue's Metropolitan Area Communications Center (MetCom) dispatches for South Metro Fire Rescue, Bennett Fire Protection District, Byers Fire Protection District, Deer Trail Fire Protection District, Sable Altura Fire Department, and Strasburg Fire Protection District in Arapahoe County.
MetCom dispatches South Metro Fire Rescue on MetCom 1 (TG 1786) using an automated voice dispatching system. Units respond on MetCom 2 (TG 1792) for most incidents. A major incident is typically automatically assigned one of MetCom's operations channels. MetCom has the ability to assign several conventional simplex fireground channel for use if requested.
I-70 Corridor
The I-70 corridor agencies are made up by Bennett Fire Protection District, Byers Fire Protection District, Deer Trail Fire Protection District, Sable Altura Fire Department, and Strasburg Fire Protection District. These agencies frequently work together on a near daily basis. They are dispatched by MetCom on EM Dispatch (TG 39). Units are automatically given an operations channel to work on when dispatched. EM Ops 1 (TG 40) is typically used for routine calls while major incidents are assigned a separate operations channel in ascending order.
These departments have assigned identifiers that can be used to identify their units. They are as follows:
- 30s & 300s: Deer Trail Fire Protection District
- 40s & 400s: Sable Altura Fire Department
- 70s & 700s: Byers Fire Protection District
