Quite a few people reported problems connecting to the scanner and that was the reason for it being unreliable. After upgrading to Windows Server 2016 the driver stopped working altogether so I decided to remove the scanner from the server and attach it to my PC.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is because the USB capture device has supported Windows 10 drivers it appears to be working well now and I haven&#8217;t seen any reliability issues yet. The bad news is that I don&#8217;t leave the PC running overnight so it won&#8217;t be available between about midnight and 8:00AM Australian Eastern Time. The scanner is still available at the address below, note that the password field is for some administrative functions that I don&#8217;t have enabled so you don&#8217;t need a password to listen to the feed:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.peter-johnson.com.au:8000\/\">http:\/\/www.peter-johnson.com.au:8000\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IMPORTANT UPDATE At the start of September 2023 Tasmania Police moved to an encrypted P25 network known as the Tasmanian Government Radio Network.
