Every recorded transmission on the dispatch channels, newest at the top. Tap one to start from there. Transmissions appear about a minute after they air, once the analyzer has filed them; calls involving a mental-health crisis are left out.
The newest incidents from these channels, block-level; happening now has the full list.
This page carries the dispatch talkgroups of the Lubbock City-County Mutual Radio System: Lubbock Police dispatch 1, 2 and 3 and the police all-call, Lubbock Fire Rescue dispatch, Lubbock County Sheriff dispatch, EMS city and county, Covenant EMS and the airport police. Each transmission is recorded by our own receiver, transcribed, tagged with its channel and unit, and filed under an incident, so it shows up here about a minute after it airs. It is a clip-by-clip replay rather than a continuous stream: tap any line to start there, or press play and it keeps up with the radio. Calls involving a mental-health crisis are removed before anything is published, and phone numbers, dates of birth and apartment numbers are redacted from the transcripts. If you want the raw, uninterrupted audio instead, Broadcastify's Lubbock City-County Public Safety feed (45909) carries Lubbock dispatch audio as a continuous stream; what this page adds is the who, where and what of every transmission, and a link to the incident it belongs to.

Each transmission has to finish, be transcribed and be matched to an incident before it is published, which takes most of a minute. Broadcastify is the choice for a stream with less delay.
Only the dispatch talkgroups above are recorded. Calls handled by phone, on other talkgroups or too garbled to transcribe never appear, and mental-health crisis calls are left out on purpose.
