Wow!!!

And being threatened himself, for filing these reports? or something else?

Thanks for doing these --- it's really another side of Santa Barbara.

Looks like a lot of "work" and effort goes into your reporting, RD .... thanks so much for keeping us all informed on scanner "traffic!"

It's a stupid personal thing..I know it's hard to believe but some people don't like me...Lol It's on my mind I shouldn't have wrote anything about it..Heck there's probably acouple cops out there that would buy them dinner in a class joint if they did me in...I apolgized to the guy that threatened me I started the fight he got me mad and I started barking at him first..The other people though they tried to do a frame up job on me with the land lord..Told him I did something I did not do and since all these guys are closer to each other than me..I did a police report to cover my butt..That's what people have to do nowadays..I referred the neighbors that hate my guts in here in the first place and this gal turns out to be some noterous con artist if I was to print her name people would know her, hell the police probably know her...As far as the police in S.B. I think most of them are good people.

Roger Dodger,

Thanks for all the good work you do. It's amazing how your short posts oftentimes have more information than our local papers do. The ability to listen to the activities of our local emergency service officials is an important one. I'm glad to see you make use of your right to be informed and in turn, inform the public.

Be safe.

Thank you for your reports Roger. I appreciate your time and effort.

I also appreciate the time and effort of the SBPD. I had no idea how much crazy crap they have to deal with on a daily basis.

Stay cool and remember to breathe, SB!

"The patient who was not being patient" line and the old guy in the window story - I'm likin' this report.

You are not supposed to know all the crap the police do...if everyone knew, they would toss out the politicians who do little to stop it

Your narrative paints a picture for me. The dark road, the cemetery, the old face looking at you through the window. You're my new favorite author.

Law enforcement personel now use cell phones to transfer sensitive information. They are very well aware that there are a bunch of us scanner dwebs tuned into their radio traffic.

The face of the old man in the window might've been a ghost. I mean you did live next door to a Cemetery

RANDEVAN...I think Roger's report highlighted that...they connect via the radio, then share sensitive info via cell.

Edfan - In light of the recent discussion about lawsuits and scanners, we are not sure if we can answer that question.

Thanks for the report - really like the editorial bits; but I think you should seriously consider turning it off and getting some sleep for a little while.

"How does one sell papers with no news?" I can think of someone local we could ask, but we'd never get an answer...

Edfan - I pay because I love Edhat as a whole. RD's posts are one fraction of the local news here. If you have the means, I urge you to support this site financially by becoming a paid subscriber.
