Coral Gables P25 Phase II...

[APX8000]

Looks like Coral Gables made the switch from their old EDACS to a Harris P25 Phase II system:

Anyone monitoring or running Unitrunker can put up some talkgroups ? I know a few buffs that would love that BeOn App BTW....

It's pointless to run Unitrunker on their system. They are now full time encrypted.

Funny part of Dade County is Coral Gables has no reason to be encrypted, even the dispatch channels. Now if you are Sweetwater or Miami Gardens where the city leaders are full of outstanding people, now they should be encrypted. Oh wait, Miami Gardens is encrypted. I wonder why?

Did not know they went the ENC route.

Coral Gables P25

Coral Gables switched to the P25 system months ago. They still maintain the EDACS system.
The P25 has Phase 1 and Phase 2 on it.
It is NOT full time encrypted.
FD & LG are unencrypted.
PD is mostly encrypted. But not all.
Some PD stuff is simulcast on the old system.
If you have the right scanners then it is an easy system to monitor.

I happen to be in Coral Gables now visiting and brought my 436 along. I thought I programmed the three listed control channels for the P25 system correctly and did an ID search for any talkgroups but so far nothing. Any advice on how to successfully monitor this system or any known TGs would be appreciated.

I wonder why CG built out a whole system instead of just getting on the Dade TRS. What a waste of taxpayer money. Well I guess CG folks are okay with paying huge tax bills.
