It doesn't, but it doesn't say you're guaranteed to be able to listen either just like we couldn't when digital systems first became a thing. Next time there's a Sandy Hook, we're going to have radio silence from law enforcement, and we'll get to hear about it on the news, or maybe piece it together using other services that are still in the clear. As more public safety opts in to the new statewide system, suspect most of the traffic will be encrypted because all units will be capable of it, and there won't be interop issues since it's all one big system. CSP will eventually go quiet as well, and with each troop getting its own dedicated encrypted channel, the direction where that's heading is loud and clear unlike their dispatch channels in the future.Your opinion, and where does it say you can't listen?
