Any way some of these freqs can be programed into a scanner so us plebs can have listen too?

Yeah, if your scanner covers that range, program it straight in.
The decimal goes after the first digit. Eg. if the frequency was 7150khz then put in 7.150mhz into your scanner.
May I advise you to also get your self a long piece of insulated single strand wire (1-2mm is OK) wire and string it up between a couple of poles or trees (longer the better, but short should still do the trick) and solder/crimp a BNC plug directly onto the end of the wire (centre pin is all that is needed) and hook it straight into your scanner.
You wont have much luck with a rubber duck or a normal 25-1300mhz scanner whip.
