Looking at an XTS-3000 that supports two encryption modes ... DES-XL DES-OFB Does the encryption work in analog mode or does it only function when operating in digital mode? Thank you.

Some of the older Motorola System Saber radios make use of DES encryption. How does encryption work with an analog signal? Encrypting digital signals seems straight forward but how are analog signals encrypted using DES?

Can a digital radio make use of an analog repeater to relay to another digital radio? I am thinking probably not but I am not sure so I figured I would ask. The same frequency is being used in both analog and digital but am I correct in thinking that the analog repeater would not know how to...

Which Motorola radios can communicate in both analog and digital modes? XTS-3000, XTS-5000, Astro Saber? Thank you.

I've been slowly working my way through creating and editing favorite lists in my settings using the Sentinel software. Very recently ALL of my analog (conventional) channels on this radio act as if the squelch is simply not there (turned all the way open), with static heard until a user on the...

I have a HT 1250 LS radio that I want to program for the following frequencies. I've asked someone if I could get it programmed for this particular system but I was told that their radios work off of 200mhz and they told is 190mhz, this doesn't sound right because they use the HT 1250 LS also...

Picture of a VHF and UHF Motorola MotoTrbo stack. This is a mobile setup and is stacked near the transmission hump. A dual band antenna and connector box is used with these. Anybody else use MotoTrbo in the Pacific Northwest?

hello, im new on radioreference but not new with scanners. i have moved to alaska view years ago and recently bought an older analog scanner the realistic pro 2005. i really like this scannerand paid 50$ for it but i have noticed i cannot hear the police or state troopers only ems and fire and...

I am asking for anyone who can help to please list all the ANALOG frequencies for the Cabarrus Operations channels. If you aren't going to be helpful, please don't reply. I simply want the answer and am not looking for people to give me a lecture.

I was looking at my local counties talkgroups and frequencies. I saw that they were mostly analog talkgroups. I was looking at another county's list of talkgroups and frequencies and saw that they were digital talkgroups. So here is my real question: What is the difference in an "analog...

Quick question, is I know PL is on analog (non-digital) systems, but just wondering about DPL, can I get DPL on an analog (non-digital) system? The BC346XT to be exact? Thank you!

Some background. Our town is getting a new Motorola Radio Communication System (simulcast). To achieve the 95% Analog coverage goal, 2 new towers are planned in less than ideal locations. We could achive the 95% digital coverage goal with a different tower configuration that has less impact...

Greetings all, I've been using an old, conventional, non-trunking Radio Shack scanner with rubber rubber ducky and telescoping antennae, mainly to listen to SOD and traffic for newsgathering purposes. In low-RF areas, it works fine, and I like being able to make adjustments on the fly. In...

I know everything is going to StarCom low band and fast. I can't or should say I am having a very hard time keeping up! First off I picked up an old hobby. I did this when I was a kid and loved it. I'm in my late 30's married and probably why I am picking up a hobby again! (reason to rebuild...

I have had this problem since I bought this radio back in 2009. I have a digital Radio Shack Pro-197 and a old Analog Pro-2050 I have both trunked digital systems like the St.Louis city p25 and then I have in a separate scan block all together the old St.Louis county Analog non trunked system...

Someone who probably knows less about "scanning" emergency service frequencies than I has said that all the local (Metro Louisville) transmitters have recently (?) gone to digital broadcast equipment. Obviously if true, or even partially true, this impacts TYPE of desktop scanner used...or in...

Since I got my FCC license I've been nosing about the bands, and doing some reading here and there. I have a question, apropos my thread title: is it possible to monitor a trunking system at all with an analog receiver? From my understanding the RX/TX may be split, and they could jump around -...

On the East Texas Medical Center page (East Texas Medical Center Trunking System, Various, Texas - Scanner Frequencies) It says it's Motorola Type II SmartZone on Analog but in the news area it says everything's been changed to TxWarn. So I just want to be sure, now I would need a digital...

I did a search for denver public safety and seen the results choose denver public safety trunking. I was looking at all the info at the top. Question is will the BCT-15 or pro-164 be able to recieve these trunking systems, except the user groups with the D. I believe the D stands for digital...
