| | Los Angeles Police Department Communications Division History (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | Between 1909 and 1929, the City of Los Angeles had more than doubled in size and population, with the annexations of San Pedro, Hollywood, Venice and the San Fernando Valley, and the LAPD was hard pressed to cover such a huge area. |
 | | LAPD broadcasts were monitored regularly by the Orange County Sheriff, the police departments of Beverly Hills, Alhambra, Santa Monica, Culver City, San Fernando, Hermosa Beach, Huntington Park, Burbank, Glendale, La Habra, Moorpark, and as far off as San Clemente, as well as several Fruit Patrol agencies in Los Angeles and Orange Counties. |
 | | Beginning in 1933, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office and LAPD conducted a number of tests to determine whether police radio was adaptable to the more-rural Sheriff's patrols and constables. |
