- Scanner notices omit names and medical calls, while block-level locations remain part of the dispatch-style reports.
Field notes
The scanner section describes dispatch-style reports for fire, rescue, and serious traffic calls across the Southtowns. It says reports use block-level locations for homes while omitting names and medical calls. The homepage also links to a standards page and a scanner-desk explainer; its stated confirmation and correction practices are visible as site policies, not independently verified by this extract.
