Field notes
The page identifies a mix of third-party and public inputs, including Broadcastify and OpenMHz audio, state 511 road information, NOAA radar, National Weather Service alerts, and USGS earthquakes. It says scanner coverage depends on volunteers, so some counties may have no feed. The site also says location moves the map but is not sent to Lookout; the app itself is still labeled “Coming soon to the App Store.”
