Lake County gone

Yes. @Jpm. I hear a LOT of in the open stuff on certain talkgroups and I just laugh. Never would tell what it is. It's almost like they don't know how to use their radios or someone told them don't worry, it's digital and it's secure. No, it's surveillance and more in the open complete with Helio support. Meanwhile.... we're told it's best that we can't hear the common traffic stop down the street OR the violent domestic 2 doors down who we should be wary of. A violent neighbor is none of our business according to them. Gooberment wants our $$$ to play with and then gives us the finger. That can be changed by voting the a-holes out. I blame them more than the feeds because this encryption stuff started before any feeds were ever put online. I don't expect common sense from our gooberment. They can't protect us, only can draw a chalk outline and hold laughable press conferences trying to explain why they're not to blame.

What's more surprising to me is that the encryption apparently isn't strapped to the talkgroup. Seems like a lapse in programming sense.

Drove through Lake County today and was amazed how quiet the scanner was.

All the fire still seems to be on VHF.

The only LE traffic I heard was;
Gurnee PD on 855.6375 (127.3)
Deerfield - Highland Park system on 155.730 (127.3)
Mundelien on their 154.100 (88.5) local channel
Grayslake - Hainesville on 472.600 (DPL343)
Antioch - Foxcom on 470.5875 (97.4)
N. Chicago on 470.4625 (97.4)
and
Winthrop Harbor - Wadsworth on 155.610 (103.5)

So, not everything is gone.................At least yet anyway.

I can't say anything about ENC for where I monitor. Everyone around me, with the exception of ISP is on VHF/UHF analog. But the interoperability thing..... There has been that for years on IREACH and ISPERN analog. Sounds like a ploy from the big radio companies to make more money.
I'm sorry the ENC is taking away your ability to monitor there. It's sad. If it goes that way here, I may just have to find a new hobby. :( But I think the interoperability thing is BS!

So I did the update for the uniden 436hp on 07/27/2016. Now says version 1.11.15 with this update shouldn't it include P25 phase II encryption auto mute?

Hats off to you, for your work in compiling those! If I tried to compile all the talkgroups I have which are encrypted, I'd be busy through dinner And breakfast! :D. 73, n9zas

No because that would only be about 4 TGID's and others haven't been active yet. So I have my list and my BETA set up listening and making notes. And I have another list of 11 TGID'S that are unidentified as well. They are not in the database or in the wiki IL-STARCOM21-Talkgroups - The RadioReference Wiki so I'm trying to do my best for all the others into this hobby like me. And should see my DMR findings and identification note pad. That one puts the one above to shame.

Re: poss Wauconda TG

If all of this "new" Lake County system is encrypted, this is an encrypted channel/talkgroup!! I am sure there are a lot more that will start popping up in the future..just have to watch and see!!

Reason I asked if possible wauconda channel is I cought the TGID but I missed the radio ID. So I couldn't compare to my notes. Also not all are encrypted radio traffic. Ex: county animal control and others. I can't be the only one listening to this site can I?

Last two weeks there's been lots of traffic on FoxComm Dispatch 1 33310

I still hear traffic on 470 nfm. But dual listening side by side it's not simulcasting.
