how do you get the live audio? is this available for public to listen to.

there's a play button in the upper left hand corner of this page. it work!

what I meant was like is there a scanner app we can download to listen on calls throughout the day. like a police scanner. I can't seem to be able to find anything to listen in on Joplin

no sorry. local, (Joplin, county) police radios have been encrypted for years.

those were the days though, $40 and a trip to radio shack and you knew the latest news before anyone else 👍
