Lots of rumors still floating around, but the answer is no, not competely. Some talkgroups are digital in the 32000 range, but others are still analog. Last I heard, the county is still looking to put up a few more towers before they can pull the switch to total digital.

But it is coming....slowly 73s Mike

Something like 4 towers now -- need 9...

Only known digital channels right now are to
enable encryption (police narcotics, etc.).
You can't hear what they say anyway so
a digital scanner won't help.

Some digital I-Calls (police supervisiors, etc.).
It's not encrypted but it also isn't that often.

The rest is all still analog (no digital card/scanner needed - yet).
