Here is a link from Monitoring Times magazine that outlines the various trunktracking scanners, and what system(s) they will cover.
Sadly some systems are encrypted - and no scanner will ever copy them. A brief listing of these agencies can be found in the Encrypted Agencies article.
The current 800MHz Public Safety band plan change is discussed under Rebanding. You may also find references to what scanners may be supported by following links from the Main Page.
