Bull****! Most digital systems are NOT encrypted!


Try having someone who finished school read the thread to you. No one here
said anything about "digital systems". We were discussing listening to the
Police, City Police. Most City Police departments that go to the expense of
an of a P-25 system do so to encrypt. There is a LOT of other stuff that is
P-25 that is not, but that is not what anyone here was asking about. Have
someone explain it to you.

Analog Gov't/Police/Fire broadcasts are usually in the Mid VHF band
(136-174 MHz, excluding 162). I think you can listen to air-traffic
control in the Low VHF band (118-136 Mhz). I live a few dozen
kilometers from an airport, in which I can listen to the communication
on 132.7 and 123.9 MHz. Correct me on all this if I am wrong. (I am a
novice :-) )

Look at the Radio Reference page. It is often way behind, but it will give
you a good idea of what they are doing.

Are you actually looking to listen to some city?

Which one?

The page may have the current info for them. If not, you can often find
people who are there who can help you out with current info. When my city
went to a combination 800 trunked, and Apco25 the page did give me some help
in setting up my first scanner, but they have long fallen behind. Do you
understand the difference between the P25 and the Analog trunked systems,
and why the P25 came about?

Are you trying to say any of the large cities that are going to the expense
to set up a P25 are leaving it open for the people to listen to?

Which ones?

I know when the P25 first started to catch on they were open, but from what
I keep hearing from people who live where they switch now, for the last
couple years, they don't leave them open. There is from what I keep hearing,
a lot of stuff on the P25 that is still open, but not the City Police that
are switching.

Which ones indeed. Support your claim.
Give us a list of some of those deparments
that have gone to a P25 so that they could encrypt.
