In Scanner Radio, turn on push notifications to hear when listener numbers on a feed suddenly spike, which is often the first sign of a major incident, or when there is a big breaking news story.

Dispatchers use 10-codes, signal codes and unit numbers as shorthand. Scanner Radio includes a built-in 10-code reference so you can follow along. Police Scanner Codes Explained: The Complete 10-Code Guide.
