This seems to answer my question, maybe. I'm in Lancaster County, SC and get good signal on the Union Simulcast site. So far though, all I'm receiving is the Fire/EMS dispatch and nothing else.
Are all of the Sheriff Department TGs encrypted now?
No the talkgroup is not encrypted. I can always hear the dispatchers and sometimes hear the deputies who havent "flipped the switch"
they have recently begun the encryption and most sound like robots now
I suspect you are picking up fire and ems off the low band?
UC Sheriff has its own dipstach Talk group
