7 years ago APD was on a raid of a dope house and found an XTS5000 programmed for NAS on the Atlanta and our (Fulton) system. ATL's radio shop was dumbfounded. I showed their folks how one could go on Ebay and buy one of these for a couple hundred bucks. (FWIW the programming was atrociously bad talkgroup wise but at least it was set to not TX pretty well).
No different than finding a trunking scanner at a crime scene. Just another criminal use of tools charge.

The problem is P7100's don't do Phase II or 700MHz. Not to mention the channel this raid was done on was probably already encrypted on P25 anyway.

Doesn't matter. Just the perception/appearance could set off alarms we don't want in this hobby.

When I go ebike riding in the warmer months, I usually have a ht with me, as well as a copy of my license in case cops get curious.
Apparently the radio didn't help them. Now, if it were a Luxury APX8000HE Radio they would still be in business!
Welp, now this thread is searchable to anyone wanting to make a case for ENC.

Do you report the line below in your news?
Guns do not kill people. People kill people.

How do you know it's a P7100? The light grey front cover indicates it's a P5100. They probably have had that radio since the EDACS system was in use. In Florida it would be an enhancement charge if committing a crime with a scanner/radio/app. Especially if it's felony charges.

No, mostly because I'm not a reporter. Even third graders know what a cameraman's job is.
Other than a picture nothing states cameraman but a 67 year old knows that.
Great, so we’ve established that you don’t know much about me. So why would you bait someone who for all you know, probably feels about the same way you do? What’s your motivation here?
I did not BAIT you I ask a simple question you care not to answer so question is dropped.
Just stop it.
