Superstorm Sandy Feeds  It is hard to believe that Hurricane Sandy hit Long Island 7 years ago. Many of us were glued to the TV and were monitoring weather reports trying to keep track of where the storm might track. Nobody could guess just how hard this area would be hit. Nobody expected the storm surges would be so great. Nobody expected lines at the gas station, or to be without power for so long.To mark the anniversary of Hurricane Sandy, we will be replaying the NCPD, SCPD, NCFD-East, and SCFD-West feeds in "real time". The feeds will begin at 1130hrs on 10/28 and run through 23:30hrs on 10/31. The feeds will run in time sequence as they would have been broadcasted a year ago.The four feeds will be running as follows:SANDY-NCFDSANDY-NCPDSANDY-SCPDSANDY-SCFDYou will be able to listen to the feeds on your computer by using one of the links on our Live Feed Page, or via the Scanner Radio app on iOS or Android Platforms.We hope all of those who have been hit hard by this storm have recovered.[/html] Comments are turned off for this item

From your iOS or Android device, download and install Scanner Radio Deluxe by Gordon Edwards. From the application, browse by source, click W2LIE.net, click New York, and then look for the 9/11 Tribute Feed.
** New for 2020 ** We have moved the feed server for just the 9/11 tribute feeds to a new host separate from our normal feeds. Hopefully this allows more users to live stream the feeds and also prevents the main server from crashing during the day.
From W2LIE.net, Monitor Long Island, Inc, Long Island Fire Photos.com, and now East Coast Pagers, we wish to thank all those who protect our country and our cities every day. We pray for those who are still suffering, and those who have lost loved ones in the attacks. We salute those who went over seas to bring justice to those who waged war on us. I hope everyone spends a few minutes today thinking about those that they love and take time to reflect on another year that has passed.
