RADIO COMMUNICATIONS DIVISION |
||
|
Communications officers, often called DISPATCHERS, are normally the first point of contact citizens have with the Jackson Police Department. Emergency calls made to 9-1-1, administrative calls to the police business lines and walk-in visits to the police station are initially handled by our radio communications personnel. |

Our communications officers do much more than answer the phone and dispatch patrol officers to calls. Communications Officers at the Jackson Police Department prepare criminal complaints (affidavits), notarize documents, operate the Law Enforcement Automated Data System (LEADS) computer, answer 9-1-1 emergency calls, dispatch local fire departments, and handle radio and telephone calls for city utility departments during non-business hours. If you're interested in monitoring the daily activities of the Jackson Police Department, simply program your scanner for 159.09 MHz. Our FCC callsign is KQB-910. While some police agencies discourage monitoring official police communications, the Jackson Police Department encourages it. Monitoring allows the community to understand what the police department does and how it works. We have also received many valuable and timely tips from scanner listeners, helping officers locate wanted persons and vehicles and making arrests on criminal activity in progress. |
