A couple months ago I stopped receiving Albany city police and fire dispatch. I've spent hours checking my radio to make sure it's programmed correctly and it appears to be. So, I'm wondering if talk groups or frequencies have changed. O maybe they are now encrypted.

Anyone kow of any recent chages?

They have swapped to a P25 system. Unless you scanner does P25, you won't pick them up anymore.

some of the talkgroups are encrypted . you will need a scanner that is capable of receiving p25 systems.
