Its Waterford police, Mich., a few months ago they went to the M/A Com-open sky. I,ve been watching to see if any scanner has been made yet to monitor this new system. Just checking if a manufacturer has come out with one yet. Thanks for replying

There is no Scanner yet on the market and not sure there will ever be a scanner to track a M/A-Com Opensky Junk System .

Actually military can be heard just fine for the most part.

Open Sky can't be scanned because the manufacturer doesn't want to release any info to scanner makers, so they'd be breaking the law by doing so.

Maybe, maybe not.
The market is too small to justify the reverse engineering.
I doubt the intellectual property would hold up in court to good attack.
