Here is what we count in Greene County today:
Fire and EMS dispatch, the channels that matter most for an aging parent's home, are publicly broadcast in Greene County right now. Police dispatch here is mostly encrypted or not publicly available, so police-related alerts would be limited. We'd rather say that plainly than pretend otherwise.

A scanner tells you everything. Nearhold tells you what matters.
If someone you love lives in Greene County and you don't, a scanner app means listening to hours of radio to catch the one call that matters. Nearhold does that listening for you. When we hear a serious call near the address you choose, you get an email that says what we heard, with the radio clip, so you can hear it for yourself. Every alert is AI-transcribed from public dispatch radio and unconfirmed, and we say so on every one.
How it works
- 1. Check coverage with their ZIP code. If we're not live yet, you reserve a spot and your ZIP moves the map.
- 2. When we're live, add the addresses that matter and what you call them.
- 3. We listen around the clock. Serious calls we hear nearby become alerts. Every evening you get a recap, including the nights when nothing happened.
Common questions
Is Nearhold live in Greene County?
Not yet. Greene County is on our build list, and families reserving spots is what moves it up. This page shows the public dispatch channels we already track for the county, so you can see what coverage would be built on.
Is there a live police scanner for Greene County?
Public scanner feeds exist for many counties, but they play raw radio: codes, static, and every routine call. Nearhold listens to public dispatch radio and sends an alert only when we hear a serious call near the addresses you choose.
Is listening to police scanners legal?
Yes. In the United States it is legal to listen to unencrypted public-safety radio. Decrypting encrypted channels is not legal, and Nearhold never does it. If a department encrypts its dispatch, nobody can hear it, including us.
Why can't I hear Greene County police on my scanner anymore?
Many departments are moving dispatch to encrypted digital systems. Fire and EMS dispatch often remains public even when police encrypt, though this varies by town. Nearhold covers whatever public dispatch audio exists near the address you choose.
Do you guarantee I'll hear about every incident?
No, and you should distrust anyone who says yes. Nearhold reports what we hear on public dispatch radio. It is AI-transcribed and unconfirmed, and it is not a medical alert or emergency service. In an emergency, call 911.
