SB1000 died last year but SB719 was created this year. It has already been voted on but they still have some kinks to sort out.I think this bill was already shot down months ago or even a year ago. This is old news.

Advanced Key Administrator has absolutely nothing to do with encryption keys.I happen to have Motorola's CPS program with Advanced Keys Administrators. Programming keys is very easy to do for an experienced programmer as Motorola themselves create the actual AES-256 key and they just mail it to the agency's programmer. The programmer reads the key and assigns the key to specific channels, talk groups, and radios. Then from there, it's just cloning the program into the radios. Whether or not they use OTAR it's up to the agency as I believe is a feature that needs to be purchased from Motorola. However, they have key loaders that can easily program the radios whether they use the KVL 5000 key loader or they have a programming wire that they plug into their laptop. Yes, it just takes labor to manually program each radio but as you said 36 radios and it's as easy as writing the program into the radios after they have it all preprogrammed and ready to clone. Shouldnt take more than a day if they have all 36 radios in front of the programmer. Obviously, it's not just a single button click but if they have OTAR I'm sure it's actually one button. Here is a pdf of part of the Advanced Key Administrator software tutorial and there is a screenshot of the CPS that I use to program Motorola XTS and APX radios. It's not the entire programming instructions because there is a lot to learn. I'm not going to provide the entire instructions but just want to give you a taste make you happy since you think I have no idea what I'm talking about.

They don't even yet have anything finalized, I would think radio frequencies will be down the list, if at all.Anyone know the LANCASTER, CA NEW POLICE FREQ not sheriff LANCASTER PD
They are OPERATIONAL nowThey don't even yet have anything finalized, I would think radio frequencies will be down the list, if at all.
Oh I guess everything I have read and seen about this getting rolling by the end of the year was wrong then. Good luck, maybe you could ask a Lancaster OPERATIONAL Police Officer to help youThey are OPERATIONAL now
Me too I can no longer hear Compton Metro frequency anymore nor Carson L-tacHearing LACO FIRE on their NEW ANALOG system
Likely moved to their (encrypted) LA-RICS talkgroups.Me too I can no longer hear Compton Metro frequency anymore nor Carson L-tac
Does anybody know why?
LASD is using the trunked system for tac channels, special ops, and courts (I believe). The dispatch channels are still analog conventional, but the plan is to move that to the TRS eventually. LACoFD has access to some fire talkgroups, but it's mostly administrative and training. Many of the old sheriff freq pairs got reassigned to fire dept as a part of their "new UHF configuration". They decided analog conventional was more operationally fitting for them, as well as easier to program for outside agencies.im not on this site much and someone may have already answered this but I will ask it. Does anyone know when LACOFD and LASD make the switch to their trunked systems?
Just Curious,
Anyone know why Long Beach PD has not jumped onboard? You would figure they would want to trash old 460 Analog.
Size, and therefore $$$, I'd guess. Long Beach is huge. In 2021, it was second in sworn officer count (772) only to the city of LA (9,474), and is almost the size of the next four smaller cities Glendale/Santa Monica/Pasadena/Torrance (200–230 each) combined.

Aaaah, I guess that explains it! lolProbably because they are working on transitioning to the Port trunked system?

Correct, Long Beach Wireless is working on expanding the POLB 700MHz trunked system with a multi-site simulcast system to ensure full coverage of the city. It only costs $$$ and time.Probably because they are working on transitioning to the Port trunked system?
