In the United States, most police departments communicate using police radio, which allows for officer-to-officer and officer-to-dispatch communication without depending on cellular network or WiFi availability. While some departments use encrypted digital radio, many continue to transmit in the clear, and are legally monitored by public citizens with `police scanners.' Because police radio is intended for internal police use and represents real-time communication, it may offer valuable insight into patterns of law enforcement activities without the potential bias and filtering introduced by a press release after the fact. In this study, we collect and examine over 14 million radio transmissions representing over 100,000 hours of speech by officers in 34 cities across the United States from July 2025 through July 2026; to our knowledge the largest scale analysis of Broadcast Police Communication (BPC) to date. We highlight both typical patterns of police communication and categorize anomalous activity that represents incidents including protests and major weather events. We present this dataset as a starting point for an array of police communication studies, conduct our own preliminary analysis, and propose several further areas of inquiry.
