Wow. I never knew that and I've lived here in L.A. all my life. I Googled it and it is true.
Los Angeles Regional Interoperable Communications System (LA-RICS) - Master Thread
LA Sheriff's heard on digital signal for a few minutes around 2230 6/17/2025
On all dispatch channels only. Digital only non encrypted.
Confirmed it with both my scanners monolog and digital

Are you talking about on their analog dispatch channels or on the larics Dispatch TG's ?
It was heard on the analog side, not LA RICS. unknown if it was rebroadcast on LA RICS
Does anyone know when County SO and County Fire are going to switch over?
From my layman's perspective, county fire is already switched over to their new configuration. Admin and specialty channels on RICS and standard operations on the UHF analog frequencies.
Sheriff hasn't switched over the dispatch channels. Everything else has switched over.
Thanks for the info.
I'll give it a shot tonight and see if I get anything from the Redlands area
Not sure what sites you will hear from there however, on DTLA 700, you will normally hear LACoFD patched CW dispatch on 1006 when some admin unit has their radio on. UCLA CSOs on 4228, EVENT 1 for SoFi bike teams during events on 83 (not patched to Inglewood TGs), then VFIRE21 RX patch on 1063.
The lifeguard channels seem to be active at points on DTLA UHF.
Outside of that, 90% of the traffic I pickup is encrypted. I try to track hits over the past few days on encrypted TGs to see how the system is being used:

Outside of the very rare incidents that use unencrypted TGs, you won't hear anything LE related currently.
That sucks ☹️
For what it's worth, North Desert 700 is currently broadcasting the following:
Site: 001
NAC: $961 (not a typo)
Sys: $962
WACN: BEE00
Someone a little closer in may want to sit on the control channel (774.46875) for a bit and see if there have been any other changes...

Hopefully dispatch is in the clear but their mobiles will be encrypted for sure on the dispatch side. They can keep this same configuration with Dispatch using one talk group dispatch and the mobiles encrypt back on another talk group back to dispatch. But with the California bill to encrypt all of LE I wouldn't be surprised if it all goes away. Just my opinion.
They will keep this configuration as it was on the old GE Errickson UHF system. Most likely hear dispatch sending out calls but the mobile units back from the cars to dispatch will be silent. Just so glad LACOFD stayed off of trunking and stay analog UHF in the clear. Best decision ever for coverage

The fully encrypted LASD dispatch talkgroups have already been created and are being programmed. Unfortunately the days of open LE is coming to an end in LA.

Patch & Channels Clear...
Not going to happen. CLETS/NCIC returns are given by the dispatcher, not the unit, so the dispatcher would have to be encrypted to pass PII per the CA DOJ requirements.
They just can't get past that busy tone and the ACD. My guess is that until they find a suitable replacement for the ACD, it'll stay the way it is, and any PII related data will be handled elsewhere.
Or they'll just come to reality and get with the times, as @PacScan seems to be implying.
