I hate to consider this a possibility, but is it the case that there is simply NO WAY to monitor digital trunked radio? What area? Your IP is showing Shaw in Alberta?? MA/COM (x-ComNet/x-Ericsson/GE) EDACS can take the form of: 1) Older AEGIS digital - NO longer supported 2) Newer "Provoice" digital is IMBE vocoder same as P25 Unfortunately the digital EDACS systems at this time are STILL UNMONITORABLE even if they are in the clear (not encrypted). Uniden & GRE could easily add ProVoice with a little work on their present P25 setup's, but seem to be reluctant to support them. AEGIS will NEVER be supported, and neither is support for the proprietary OpenSky IP based digital format likely to come to a scanner. EDACS systems can also employ a simple XOR'd "encryption" ala EDACS Security Key (ESK) to the control channel so that scanner can not even decode the control channel. ETrunker has a version that can at least see the activity even with this simple "encryption." |
