That's a great question for the Nevada forum, as this isn't something that people who don't live there know, nor would it be general scanning. Please just click on REPORT and ask our friendly mods to move this to the Nevada forum for you, so you get accurate answers from them. Please don't start a new post as double posting is discouraged.

LVMPD is 100% encrypted. The audio you heard coming from the demo scanner at giga parts was listening to the unencrypted police departments such as Henderson and Highway Patrol.

The majority of it is. There are a few talk groups that aren't like the 8TACXX and some rural fire channels on their system that aren't, but the meat and potato Patrol stuff that everyone wants to hear cant be listened to.

They went encrypted after the news blasted their response scanner traffic all over TV and internet from the Harvest Festival mass shooting.

The media requested the scanner recordings and they were released. Last year when Biden was in town and was rushed to the hospital with some medical episode, the media also requested the radio recordings and they were also released. All it takes is filling out a form and paying a $35 fee and you can get all of the radio recordings that you want from them.
