The Turner Radio Network has obtained the complete radio interoperability guide for the Department of Homeland Security, issued by the DHS office of emergency communications. The guide, issued just days ago, includes updates for the entire nation through March 10, 2009.
This 76 page guide lists the radio frequencies, repeater input / output / talk-around frequencies, trunked radio network details including CTCSS codes for "private line" carrier squelching, satellite communications codes, radio programming instructions and more!

You can get yourself a nice programmable scanner for $100 or so. You'll be able to listen in on just about everything though you wont be able to transmit.
You might be able to get a nice used one too. A lot of NASCAR rednecks have them just to listen to the in car communications which is like 1/1000th of what a nice scanner is capable of.

Ya! that is very important if your planning on using it whilst taking a swim in the pool or if you're taking a shower, or if you are a fish living in an aquarium!
But I understand what you mean, it could stand heavy rain and rough outdoor weather, right?
