What is the scanner frequency for Denton Tx police?

Answer 1

There is no single frequency for Denton City PD. The Denton City PD uses a talkgroup on a trunked radio system (0B12 is the system ID, 105.88 is the connect tone, control channels 857.31250, 858.31250, 859.31250, and 860.31250 MHz) shared by the city (shared with fire, waste, city management, water, TWU, UNT, etc) and there are multiple trunked frequencies. If you want to monitor them (and if it's legal for you to do so), you will need a radio scanner capable of following trunked systems and capable of reception in the 800-MHz public safety band. The system is a Motorola Type-II SmartNet. I don't know if the city is going to go digital (many scanners especially trunking scanners will do digital) or possibly APCO-25 (you need an expensive scanner to decode APCO-25).
