My Hidalgo county finally switched over to the Regional Radio System by the way all law enforcement activity's and channels from 00-25 are 100% encrypted

Sucks. I just found this out. Hadn't scanned their frequencies in a while. Usually stick to DPS and McAllen PD.

One of the local media outlets ran a quick story about the agencies involved in that La Joya incident having problems communicating with each other. Funny thing is most, if not all, of those agencies took grant money to go P25 to prevent that very problem from happening.

P25 doesn't solve communication's problems all together ..it just creates others.. any how law enforcement is never content or satisfied..after they get those p25 they'll want p25-phase 2 radios....since I believe the Hidalgo county RRS.is phase 2 capable..
