Hi, Depending on where you live, ALSO, some police agencies are encrypted, but not the Sheriff's dispatch and Oakland and none of the Fire Dispatch. You can look at East Bay Regional Communications System (EBRCS) Trunking System, Various, California. any of the modes that ends with E is encrypted,

I agree they are solid people

@northstarfire0693 I was indicating that I was not sure if my NIFOG was up to date, and I did not imply that @mmckenna or @wa8pyr were older versions that's why I included them in my reply

If you plan on using the BCD436HP at your Home, you can use a Yagi Base Antenna like this 824-960, 13dBi, Terrawave Yagi Base Antenna will resolve the Simulcast Distortion you just have to point it at one of the sites

Hi, @footage. Can you post the frequencies also? Since it's P25 simulcast, the BCD436HP mite has problems with Simulcast Distortion - The RadioReference Wiki

I found this National Communications Magazine SCANNING: Whistler apparently out of business

Hi, @freshbenz. If you only listen to public safety, then no

Thank you @2wayfreq

What is the difference between the RPM2 Master and Distribution Dongles? Just getting started with Harris Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, I am looking for any recommendations on Harris Dealers in California. Thank you

That is not a problem. Thank you for updating it. Since we're wildfire season, I will monitor Central and West Con Fire ICS. I bet they made some changes there, also

Welcome to the Hobby. What systems do you want to monitor? low-band VHF, UHF 700/800?

I agree that small agencies and CHP would be the exception. But many Radio vendors are pushing encryption. OCFA is a great example. I find it impossible to justify having fire-dispatched channels encrypted. There needs to be transparency. Look at any Newsroom or ENG/SNG Van; you will find...

Dispatch channels should be in the Clear unencrypted. If they need to comply with CADOJ and FBI/USDOJ requirements, they can utilize non-dispatch channels. This is the preferred approach anyway, as running license registration and warrant checks can tie up dispatch channels

Can you send photos of your antenna setup? What antenna manufacturers and model is 477mhz collinear antenna? have you tried to swap the 2m/70cm dual-band antenna to the NMO on your collinear antenna? And recheck your your SWR to see if there is any changes?
