Chas, do HAMs pick up NOAA frequencies or would I have to purchase a "police scanner" like this

I'd like a scanner that can pick up NOAA, local police/fire/rescue frequencies, as well as HAM frequencies... also BTW when I was little my dad had a CB radio is that the same as a HAM radio?
A lot of the North Texas Police/Fire frequencies are now encrypted digital transmissions and you can’t hear them on a scanner.
