GENESEE COUNTY, MI -- For those who’ve listened to the crackle of the scanner traffic over desktop or handheld radios over the years in Genesee County, the silence heard Thursday afternoon was deafening.
As of approximately 3 p.m. May 30, all police scanner traffic for local agencies -- including colleges -- became encrypted.
The move came as part of a $6.2 million upgrade to more than 1,300 radios including cars, portables, consoles and desktops.
