I was recently in the Charleston area for a few hours and didn't hear a peep out of Charleston County FD/EMS Dispatch channel? Are they still using it? Is it encrypted now? I only had a unication and no scanner with me so couldn't do much to figure it out. Nothing changed with my programming so I am worried it's one of the two options I suggested. Can anyone in the area confirm?

I've been wondering the same thing :(

I only listen to the live audio through broadcastify, but back on 1/19 all of the charleston county talk groups just stopped coming through on the calls platform. the regular "charleston and lowcountry public safety" feed is still up, and it even says which talk group is talking each time a call comes through, but idk enough about the actual scanning/broadcasting process to know what's up with it. hoping someone else has an answer tho!

I'm not local, but played around with some recent recordings on Alertpage. It does sound like some encryption on Charleston County FD/EMS Dispatch. I am still getting unencrypted dispatches on various department Ops channels though, including Charleston City.
