Scanners have changed over the years as has the radio technology. Many communities have moved their safety forces over to encrypted and / or trunking radios. If the transmission is encrypted you have no chance of listening to it. If the transmission in not encrypted but on a trunking network you may only hear one side of the conversation.
The old days of the Radio Shack 2004 and 2006 are long gone. The best thing to do is Google police scanners and see just what is going on int that arena. Also a trip to the local Radio Shack to see what they have to offer and what can be heard before you spend your money.
