<News on listening sets & scanners coming soon>
The VFBV/CFA Joint Communications Committee is pleased to advise that you can now tune in to regional radio dispatch traffic from anywhere in the state by using the free website Broadcastify.
This web streaming service allows you to receive radio comms via your computer, smart phone or tablet, without the need for a listening set, or an upfront cost.
To hear CFA traffic, go to www.broadcastify.com/listen/stid/152 and select your region. Official CFA streams are identified by a white star inside a red circle. For those using smartphones, you may need to install a player from the app store. Be aware that some free apps might have time restrictions which will stop the streaming after several minutes.
Anyone listening via their mobile phone or tablet should keep track of their data usage to avoid the extra cost of exceeding their monthly data limit. The VFBV/CFA Joint Communications Committee has requested that CFA publish streaming rates and estimated data use per hour to ensure people can factor that into their decision to use the service.
This service is not designed to replace listening sets, but the streaming service will provide a convenient way to listen for those that prefer a smartphone or computer. The committee is still working very closely with CFA as they progress to tender, and will have news on listening sets very shortly.
