Something to bear in mind - refer to the current ARRL Letter's article concerning an individual who made false calls on police frequencies. One of the points in the article is unauthorized possession of radios capable of operating on law enforcement frequencies is illegal in New York (where the offenses occurred). Thus, think carefully about loading law enforcement frequencies into a radio capable of transmitting on those frequencies. It's one thing to listen, it's another to even accidentally key up.

I can't speak for the rest of the US, but in California, all of the County Communications centers have a low band VHF frequency they use for mutual aid in the event of a major disaster; such as an earthquake. Although seldom used, they are tested frequently.

The 30-50 MHz band is VHF, not HF. It is commonly called VHF Low Band. It is extensively used by the military and in the past was extensively used for private land mobile radio. Nowdays there are not that many public safety users there in many areas.

Are you sure about that frequency? 39.82000 is a HF frequency; it is very unlikely any municipal agencies would use HF, more likely they would be using VHF, UHF or SHF. Maybe you meant 139.82000 or 439.82000?
