Now, I like that idea. How would I go about generating a P25 transmission? I'm new to Rx, and nowhere near competent enough for the Tx side of things yet.
I guess we are all going to jail. I know you are rightfully quoting the law. I just find it funny that the law says that, yet it happens all the time in plain sight on all scanner forums. The only way I see us “getting away” with discussing things we heard on the scanner and broadcasting feeds is we can be considered “authorized” since it is used by a public service. I am no LawerWhile it appears to be legal to assemble your SDR stuff to listen and decode data, it may not be legal to divulge the contents of the message or decoded info in your presentation. Here is some wording about that.
"No person not being authorized by the sender shall intercept any radio communication and divulge or publish the existence, contents, substance, purport, effect, or meaning of such intercepted communication to any person"

Why would merely discussing encryption be a slippery slope? Most commonly used encryption standards are openly published, there is no secret to how it works.
Does not every digital scanner decode P25 transmissions? P25 is not encrypted in general. Should all Uniden Techs be thrown in jail? It can be encrypted but in general it is not. Amateur radio operators use P25. It is no secret.
But when you clearly outline ALL of the details in one place, I can see some zealous government authority getting bent out of shape. Funny, we can do these things in private, and who knows? But share it openly, be aware.
If you create your own transmission specifically to decode for educational purposes via amateur radio or into a dummy load, then nobody else has a claim to it.
In Bill Cheek's case he sold a simple circuit to a guy in long island who took the hobby to the extreme and ported LE mobile data onto the internet for all. So the NY DA seeing fresh meat went after Bill Cheek and his wife and made their life miserable.
Soooooooooooooo............. what happened?
I hope you posted that from your bunker in an undisclosed location. The government is coming after you now for disclosing the secrets of the new world order.
There is no reason to be worried about publicly sharing and discussing information about how an encryption method works when the government has already provided that information to the public.

so why not use a P-25 ham transmission ?they are out there.
