Post conversations for 2017 here.
Sounds like KU Medical Center PD is beginning the P25 transition. I heard them doing test calls on the Reg Com channels earlier this evening. Word is they will be using full encryption once they move from the current Motorola analog system.
Just out of curiosity, is anyone else here using a Unication receiver to monitor this system (or any of the surrounding radio systems)? I was able to get my hands on one. It performs flawlessly on MARRS and KSICS. No multi-path distortion issues whatsoever!
what is the Unication receiver and how do I get one?

KU MED has been using a NEXEDGE96 system for the past couple years. I've not seen any Police aliases, but I've not monitored much, or in awhile. Maybe they are patching to the Reg Com or KCK PD talkgroups. Is that is possible from NXDN to P25?
All public safety operations have been on the Motorola Type II system. The NEXEDGE system you're referring to is used by the University (for non public safety ops). I read the RFP paperwork for their new P25 system. They did mention something about putting some NXDN talkgroups in the new consoles. Whether or not that's possible could be an entirely different story.
The NEXEDGE system is actually used by the Hospital not the University the University uses the new P25 system (just upgraded from the Motorola Type II system) on a techinical note the NXDN talk groups come into the dispatch consoles using dedicated NEXEDGE radios that are frequency agile.
