SomaFM SF Police Scanner ranks 34 among 1,481 stations in the United States. High enough that the country hub carries it in its own tables, and far enough from the head that the neighbours below are a genuinely different set of stations from the famous ones.
At 41 recorded opens, SomaFM SF Police Scanner is one of the streams that people actually reach through the public directory rather than through a station's own app. The count is the whole basis of the ranking on this site, and it is worth knowing that it measures directory traffic specifically.
SomaFM SF Police Scanner is the only station in the United States whose first tag is police scanner, out of 1,481 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in the United States does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only police scanner station.
37 of the United States' entries are served from ice6.somafm.com, this one among them. A shared host means a shared fate. If this stream is silent, the fastest check is not this station's own site but whether its neighbours on the same platform are playing.

SomaFM SF Police Scanner is one of 3,967 playable stations the catalogue lists in United States, and one of the smaller number that say where in the country they transmit from.
These are counts of what people did inside the public radio-browser catalogue and the apps that read it, over the whole life of the entry. They are not our own figures and they are not an audience measurement: most entries in this catalogue sit under five all-time plays, so a small number here means the catalogue has little to say about this station rather than that nobody listens to it.
Broadcast by SomaFM SF Police Scanner. Stream served directly by the broadcaster. Their own site is at somafm.com.
Station details come from the public radio-browser directory and are reproduced as recorded there. If you run this station and something here is wrong, or you would rather the page did not exist, write to us from the support page and we will fix or remove it.
