Yeah, I guess I really should just get the site going, huh? Problem is, I have so much work to do currently, so I won't have that much spare time. I'll go ahead and do it, though.
I also plan to invite anybody with the LAPD to contribute. Maybe some of the people involved care to divulge information. Maybe not, but what's the harm done in asking.
Yes, after a long and difficult search, I recently got hold of what I assume is the uncut version of the police radio band. At least it's 42 minutes long, but as far as I can see, it is only the North Hollywood frequency along with the TAC frequency issued when things started to get dangerous. I don't think the Van Nuys band is included at all.
It's 56kbps, which is alright for radio transmissions. I'm doing a transcript right now, and it takes me quite a while, mostly because a lot of the transmissions are quite garbled, fast spoken and not always of supreme quality. I guess dispatchers really develop an ear for that kind of thing.
I'll make sure I include the MP3, when the site comes up. I have a few video clips as well, but no such things as the entire news coverage, I'm afraid. I'd really love to get a hold of them, though.
I recently saw that the History Channel is releasing a DVD on the incident within the next month or so. It looks interesting, but I'm certainly not going to buy it, unless it contains the entire news coverage, and I'm not entire sure judging by the description:

Stay tuned.
