What is the current status on the DC PD encrypting their radio traffic. I know there was a firestorm from the media. Chief Lanier said a few channels would stay open. Any updates?
In my observations, the only talk group I've heard in the clear has been 16624, alpha tagged as 1-16/2-16 CW-1, as pre-programmed on my Pro 106. It's a citywide tg. When I've been in range, I've heard nothing remarkable.
The DCFD is still unencrypted at this point except for some executive talk groups. MPD's Citywide 1 talk group is mainly used for the dispatch of assignments for Crime Scene Search and occasionally SOD K9 units.
