Fire radio splits across channels by job:
The comm center toughing out calls and sending units — best for “is there a fire and where.”
On-scene crews coordinating the firefight once units arrive.
Incident commanders running strategy across the whole incident.
Pilots and ground crews coordinating water and retardant drops.

Fresno County fire scanner FAQ
How do I listen to the Fresno County fire scanner?
Tap “Listen live” on this page — it opens Fresno County’s public-safety scanner feeds (police, fire, and EMS) on Broadcastify, where you can play the live dispatch audio in any browser. No app or signup is required, and listening to public-safety radio is free and, in most of the U.S., legal.
What can I hear on the Fresno County scanner?
Depending on which feeds Fresno County has, you can hear fire and EMS dispatch (calls being toned out), tactical channels (on-scene firefighting), command traffic, and — during a wildfire — air-to-ground coordination for water and retardant drops. Some agencies encrypt their radio, which can’t be streamed.
Is there a Fresno County fire scanner app?
You don’t need one — this page opens the live feed in your browser. If you prefer an app, the Broadcastify and Scanner Radio apps carry Fresno County feeds where available. The audio is streamed by Broadcastify; FireRisk.ai links you to it.
Are there active wildfires in Fresno County?
The banner near the top of this page checks the National Interagency Fire Center for active wildfires in Fresno County and shows them if any are burning — pair that with the live scanner to follow the response.
FireRisk.ai links to live public-safety audio hosted by Broadcastify and does not rebroadcast their feeds. Scanner traffic is unofficial and may be delayed — for emergencies call 911 and follow your local authorities.
