Will this pick up all digital police signals?

In a word....NO. This scanner is analog only, so can't pick up any broadcast in digital.

I'm not sure. I would say no. I got mine to pick up 700mhz police radios. It works for that but otherwise I don't know anything about it

Yes, but it would still need a micro controller or analog input / output to feed it a signal or decode one

According to the manual, yes. I haven't used for that purpose yet but states it detects them all.

Yes it does. My area police and fire use the same frequencies and I have no problem with picking them up.

I would think so. Probably just an updated version. As as it's hardwired with the other house detectors, no problem

No. This device picks up digital broadcast signals. That means the signals that the television stations transmit over the air.

Dear, this is a signal detector. This product uses the active laser scanning and passive radio frequency sweep combination method can accurately identify eavesdropping , telephone tapping and digital eavesdropping ,tracking ,vehicle eavesdropping, etc

Do not have that equipment, but if it is IR controlled it should. The unit repeats the signal it receives from the hand held remote.

Yes. Just turn up the squelch to drown out the static and hit scan. It can pick up signal from quite far out.

"theoretically" yes... but in all reality no... it would be so garbled after you jammed them all into one signal...

This Radio Shack police scanner is not digital .. is a trucking police scanner you should be able to hear your 9-11 emergency police dispatcher and the police officers responding back to the 9. 11 dispatcher with No problem .. this police scanner is it easy to program all you have to do is search your state and then search your city or county directly on your police scanner and and save the search after that you are done.. in order to listen all you have to do is scan the police scanner ..

The scanner will scan "low band" police frequencies by selecting the police service function key. Unfortunately, most law enforcement in the USA has switched to encrypted frequencies and they can not be picked up by this or any other commercially available scanner. You probably will not be able to listen to Police communications.

I believe it to be analog. Sent it as a gift in the area it is being used it cannot pick up police signals since the area is digital and is using higher 800mz frequencies.

If I'm understanding you correctly, YES. I cover several communities for the news and put in the police and fire channels for all of them. If one is annoyingly dominant and constantly on air, I switch them off so the others can have a chance. It is a nice little scanner with a good range.

It can be used in any State. Problem is that many Police Departments have switched to Digital Radio. Like Vegas where I live. Scanners will not pick up theses signals so it is useless if this is your intention. Mine is just a Paper Weight for me now being Vegas Police went to Digital. Check if your Police went to Digital Radio. If so then this is useless...like mine now!

It only receives GPS signal, not phone service. The GPS is so fire and police can locate your house. Does't do anything for cell phone reception
