Welcome to the RR forums. NO RECEIVER CAN MONITOR ENCRYPTED RADIO TRANSMISSIONS...PERIOD! Except the radios intended to operate on the system
Encrypted channels cannot be monitored by any scanner.
you can program the encrypted channel as you would any other in the 436hp. As stated above, you won't be able to hear the traffic due to encryption. But lots of scanner users keep that frequency in there and and scanned, just in case they turn off encryption for some reason.
Assuming database is still accurate, your town's fire & utilities can still be monitored if it's any consolation to you...
| Frequency | Input | License | Type | Tone | Alpha Tag | Description | Mode | Tag |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 453.700 | 458.700 | WPKI645 | RM | 218.1 PL | Taunton FD | Fire Operations | FMN | Fire Dispatch |
| 483.300 | 486.300 | WQCE661 | RM | 411 DPL | Taunton FD2 | Fire Secondary | FMN | Fire-Tac |
| 158.130 | KCA983 | BM | 162.2 PL | TMLP Crews | Taunton Municipal Lighting Plant - Crews | FMN | Utilities | |
| 158.190 | KCA983 | BM | 162.2 PL | TMLP Const | Taunton Municipal Lighting Plant - Construction | FMN | Utilities |
In addition to the Police channel 2 frequency...483.0625

Ok thanks for the help
The Database is incredibly accurate for southern New England. I've said this to you, time and time and time again. I'm tired of repeating this.
This particular entry happens to be extra accurate because... I LIVE HERE IN THE CITY THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF THIS THREAD.
Johnmacc,
Anyways, yes the DB is accurate. Yes the PD foolishly switched their former channel 2 to encryption, and flip flopped channels on Tuesday. The former channel 1, is now channel 2, and left "in the clear" for interop. As I've heard, they aren't letting anyone else have access to the encrypted radio channels. Neighboring departments, media, etc.
Although they've been having issues with it. It's not strapped on the console, and the dispatcher has been in the clear, albeit very rarely. Last night, after the power went out , they had issues and had to use their analog channel for about three hours.
I was wondering why I hadn't heard much from Taunton PD lately. That's rough, they're one of my staples that I listen to all the time. Well, used to listen to now...and the walls continue caving in, making our world smaller and smaller..
