At the start of each forum is a set of stickies - some of them will have the info you need. Try this for instance.

The Uniden uh044dp is a CB radio. You wont get the police with that!

Google the models that are on there. Look around this site and see what the members are using. Try looking under the scanners and recievers section.

Possibly - why the big interest in listening to police communications? Whats your background?

You can hear the Bunbury police but not with your UHF CB. The only use for that is going on Channel 2 repeater and talking to other people.
