There is NO "hoax" regarding the shooting.

The "POLICE SCANNER IN NOLA" thread here at FR was deleted on a whim based on the rankest hearsay; even though I CLEARLY posted WHO set up and was hosting the scanner feed on this deleted thread.

Once again- http://www.radioreference.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20238

Read this thread very carefully and tell me these people are staging a "hoax".

I should even have an mp3 file of the stream saving as I was listening at the exact moment of the shooting report.

Kind of frustrating when a thread one has devoted the past few hours contributing to is deleted for no real reason, I posted both of these scanner forum links on the NOLA thread here and also WHO was on the scanner feed.

So once again:

PFISH:

"The scanner is monitoring several different talkgroups. (Troops A, B, F, and G, All national guard, red cross, louisiana hospital assosc., department of health and hospitals, and a few others). Most traffic is on LSP Troop B F1 and National Guard B - Admin. For the live stream, you have to statically edit a config file with the talkgroups you want to have text tags.. here is my file:

656, LSP Troop B F1
41264, Office of Public Health
20656, National Guard B - Admin
20688, National Guard B - Ops
20720, National Guard B - Security
3216, LSP Troop F F1
6800, LSP Statewide F1
43376, Louisiana Hospital Association
scanning,Scanning...

Also, the scanner is in West Monroe, Louisiana.. about an hour from shreveport and just below the Arkansas border. Alot of the people that fled new orleans came here. We have about 12 shelters set up."

PFISH a hoaxster?

Here's the thread that initiated the scanner feed, btw,

I went outside after that thread was pulled and called out to the bears in the woods. I was furious! I wasn't going to turn the 'puter back on but am now glad that I did. I couldn't believe that this could have been a hoax after all my years of listening to police scanners, this sounded as real as real can be. I still will wait for MSM to report about the soldier who was "shot" before I believe anything.

However, that being said, I do believe that the scanner was real, IMO. I've been called a fool before, so bring it on. LOL ;)

Read this thread very carefully and tell me these people are staging a "hoax".

Please be patient with us. There are many threads posted daily and many trolls mixed in between

Some threads will be pulled for a review.

The thread in question has been restored
