Far as I understand it they are using the same freqs. And yes I did have a digital scanner listed but removed it as listed as I no longer had it.

"Delays have pushed this into the fourth quarter of 2018. There are significant risks now being faced with the current radio system that is out of support. Many critical components are not available any longer and the system is experiencing aging issues. Moving off of this
system as quickly as possible is the goal of public safety users."

"Plans, coordinates, controls, distributes, and audits the transmission of all UKEK/TEK encryption keys"
Not sure to which public safety users this will apply to. Seems a little asinine to have public works and transit on enc but that's just me...

This thread has a lot of conflicting info. I'm really confused? Will the system be entirely encrypted or not?

I hate all these speculations, one has to remember there is a new council coming in December, also the current regional chair did not seek re-election so a new regional chair is coming in too. Who knows what this new council will/can do? Time will only tell.
^^^ Exactly what he said. We know the police and higher ups will want most likely everything encrypted, but until it hits the streets it's only speculation, no matter who you've heard it from. Same thing with the new Fleetnet. Enjoy it now while you can, worry about the future when it gets here.

I heard everything will be ROT13. My sources are always reliable, so you can take that to the bank.

Encryption
Since the new incoming chairwoman has told me in person that all
comms will be encrypted, I think you can take that to the bank. It
is time that all comms are enrypted since there is alot of stuff
happening that wouldn't be if they were encrypted. Get a life and
a new hobby!
