Is Bartlett not encrypted? It has been a while since I was last in the Bartlett area.
According to this fire is in the clear. Police dispatch is in the clear but some other talkgroups are encrypted or sometimes encrypted

I don't think I can get Bartlett from my location but the next time I am in the area I will see if I can pick them up.
Bartlett is running a Harris Trunked system. Your scanner may need specific settings for a non-Motorola trunked system.

Fire and police dispatch are in the clear. What scanner are you using? I used to monitor the system with a BCD436 and had to set the squelch to zero for it to stay locked on to the control channel. Reception seems to drop off outside city limits for scanners. I use a Unication G5 which gets better range and has no problem with the control channel.
