Wellington Scanner Frequencies (NZ)

Last updated: Tuesday 16 April 2018



Welcome to "Wellington Scanner Frequencies - New Zealand" 


If you live or passing by the Capital or the Wellington Region to take the hassle out of searching for frequencies we have most of the popular ones on this site. 

Unfortunately the Wellington Police are now digital which cannot be picked up by a scanner. However you can still tune into the Palmerston North Police Channel.

Due to recent Earthquake activity having a handheld scanner or scanner that can be run on backup power incase of a power failure will ensure it can operate during a power failure.

Please any feedback or new frequencies or any information on any frequencies below please use the Guestbook.

PS In 2018 we will be moving to a new website
