EF Johnson 5100 "Digital Squelch" questions

[W4KRR]

I have an EF Johnson 5100 VHF which I use for two meter ham and conventional VHF analog and P25 channel monitoring.

With regard to P25 digital conventional frequencies, in the programming software under the "Zone" tab, "Receive", there is a check box for "Digital Squelch". Does checking this box allow any P25 transmission to be heard without regard for the NAC code?

And, how are encrypted transmissions handled? Will I hear the digital noise, or is encryption muted?

What I am trying to accomplish is to hear any P25 traffic that is present on the channel, regardless of NAC or talkgroup, and preferably any encrypted traffic be muted.

If memory serves, there is a "universal" NAC code that will let you hear any P25 transmission but I don't have the actual code handy.

I'm not sure if that will also apply to trunked talk groups (but I think not).

F7E - a receiver set for this NAC will unsquelch on any NAC received.

I thought that was just for Motorola radios?
