P 25

[SouthJerseyBoy]

I am new to scanning but have been a Ham since 1951. However, I have been off the air for a while. I just bought a

Home Patrol. I am currently in Florida and it works quite well. However, in Pinellas County, whenever they come on,

all I see is " P-25." What does this mean?

P.S. Please remember that no question is silly if asked in good faith !!!
