HP-2: Home patrol 2 and sd card

[goldwing24]

I have the bcd-996p2 and no longer receives p25 Transmissions I could see the frequency with full strength balls on top but no audio a week ago was working fine so they managed to figure out a way to take that away now scanners aren't worth even buying any more they're very limited

It would help to know your city and county so I can check if there have been any changes. If you attach your programming file, I can take a look at it. What is it that you can no longer monitor?

Thank you for your reply with Phil State Police was working last week with Phil State Police p25 is not working this week I don't know if it's being overhauled and serviced or it's just not available anymore it does always come up whichville police State Police offline it's been saying that now

Virginia State Police is now encrypted on the STARS system. It has been reported that many talkgroups on STARS have been encrypted within the past month.

Thank you very much for your reply much appreciated I didn't know if my scanner was broken or just like you said they encrypted the p25 now I appreciate your feedback and your answer that kind of takes the fun out of listening but I get it they're all doing it

That leaves my local PD and EMS and Fire I could still listen to that that's analog but I got a feeling in the future they're going to switch to encryption too and it won't even be worth buying scanners anymore except to listen to the weather or air or ham radio that be the only thing they can get no more police Fire EMS services

 

[goldwing24]

Maybe the only good thing to come out of it is still lower the prices on the really good ones because they're not worth buying anymore
