Look like a control channel on 770.6062 right now.
I am kind of new to this. I am a retired Vietnam Vet and my main "entertainment" was listening to my HomePatrol police scanner here in Baldwin County. So are you telling me that with the new digital system being encrypted, I'm not going to hear anything anymore? Is there some way around it? I hate that I put $500 into a scanner that picks up nothing.
Codeplug, Thanks for the updated info, but I am not sure I understand what I am looking at? These are the new freq's under temp license or proof that it's gone encrypted and I am screwed, lol?
Okay, so I added the freqs (769-805) and since I did not know the logical channel numbers for the trunked system I let the radio do a discovery across the range. Still nothing to find. I even reached out to the local AmRadio club in town to see if anyone was successful in monitoring the area, but none of them are operating scanners, only HAM radios. :-(
LOL anyone want to buy a BCD436HP with upgrades just out of box?
Damn the new systems. Wish it was like the old days when I could just buy a crystal or two and slap them in.
So just spoke with the head radio tech that handles all the programming for the local services and they are definitely encrypted. No traffic visibility at all for area.

The only thing not encrypted is the Fire Department dispatch channels that covers the city and the county. They're also in the process of or trying to leave the OARS system so things are likely to change soon.
I just submitted a note to update the system in the database in some way...
However, given I am not there it would be better if someone locally submitted an update to confirm heavy use of encryption for the admins so some future users (and those of us who do what we can to help) don't fall into this same trap.
Reading this again -- wow.... First they had DMR, then went onto this system, and they want to move again? Am I reading that right?
I will be more than happy to submit the info for you if you like. Just need to know the correct process for doing so
