Coming from having used a BC200XLT handheld (which i actually still have)in the mid eighties in the Midwest listening to police and cordless phone conversations( we clipped a resistor on a board that allowed that as i recall)
I'm not sure if it is good for anything at all but i digress.
I now live in Gilbert Arizona , Maricopa county USA
I began to get curious about listening to local police fire and rescue and started doing a bit of looking around for equipment that would allow me to do so.
I suspect that they are encrypted: When i navigate through the Databases/Frequency database Gilbert i see this listed:
TOPAZ Regional Wireless Cooperative (TRWC)
Project 25 Phase I
and for our neighboring city of Chandler:
Regional Wireless Cooperative (RWC)
Project 25 Phase II
After clicking and navigating to those subsequent pages i dont really see anything that clarifies anything it references "talkgroups"
So ultimately is there a way to listen to my local police fire and EMS and at what cost for equipment?
Thank you for your time today:
