Welcome to South Bay Scanner. This feed's coverage area includes fire dispatch audio happening in the South Bay region of the Los Angeles basin for the following cities/areas:

• El Segundo Fire Department
• Los Angeles County Fire Department (Blue 1):  Avalon, Hawthorne, Hermosa Beach, Lawndale, Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills, Rolling Hills Estates
• Los Angeles County Fire Department/Lifeguard (V-14 Direct): Southern Section: Headquartered at the Hermosa Beach Pier, service is provided from the Southern jetty of Marina Del Rey to San Pedro
• Manhattan Beach Fire Department
• Redondo Beach Fire Department
• Torrance Fire Department

Please note, we are also monitoring the old (depreciated) police/fire frequencies now called "Access" channels. Most of the South Bay police/fire agencies converted to a new, encrypted radio system in late 2019, which we are not able to monitor. Even though those "Access" channels are quiet 99% of the time, there are two main reasons those frequencies will become temporarily active:

1. When there is an incident occurring and a South Bay agency is requesting assistance from an outside agency that is not able to communicate on the new ICI radio system.
2. When the ICI radio system goes down for maintenance, the Access frequencies get utilized as a backup dispatch system.
