Im trying to listen to RCMP Cape Breton Traffic Services which says digital on the rad referance page its not marked E so i dont think its encrypted. Were using smartzone type 2 omnilink so i assume its a 3600 control chan with p25 voice. I have a psr 500 but what confuses me is what to set as the system type. p25 auto/manual or MOT 800/900? control chan is something like 860.4125. Also im wondering, this is a province wide system here in nova scotia so i should be able to hear stuff from very far away with omnilink?

Theoretically yes. If someone's radio is tuned to a talkgroup on the site you are monitoring, and someone on the other side of the province is also using that talkgroup, then yes you will hear them. But it has to be that a legitimate radio on the system is forcing the talkgroup traffic to your site.
