Would this be 463.700 CC1 TG1000 SL1?

Yes but the TG is 1001
I noticed in the DB that the channel labeled as "COVID-19 Ops" is the one that's shown as encrypted. Did security switch to that one, or are they still on Slot 1?

No it needs to be corrected to the security channel.
463.700 CC 1 TG 1001 SL 2 has been updated in the database as "Security". Any idea if SL 1 TG 1001 is still seeing any use there?

The security TG is 1001 SL 1 this is the primary Dispatch channel not slot 2
So TG 1001 SL1 is still the primary security TG? Is this the TG/Slot that is now encrypted? Any traffic being heard on TG 1001 SL 2?

Correct haven't heard anything on slot 2 since 2021. Slot 1 is security
Sorry about that. I updated the wrong one.
Glad Kevin got it fixed.

For my fellow radio enthusiasts who like to listen to DMR systems around the Chicagoland area, I visited the Rush University Medical Campus yesterday, and was able to confirm a couple of things:
Tried listening from my home, and the radio was able to hear a slight signal from their system, but not enough to hold the system in the radio long. This indicates they have a relatively low-power system. Upon visit to their campus, I was able to get a strong read on their system, of course. Upon listening for a reasonable amount of time, I was able to determine that their talk groups are TE/DE full time. RUMC's entire system is TE/DE.

When I wrote the thread, I used the RR feature that allows one to see if something has been discussed. Didn't pop-up. Sorry about that.

Well today many transmissions are coming through in the clear on the security channel that was encrypted. Will keep monitoring
I just checked, I'm still seeing ENCRY on talk group 1001...Security

It was 1001 slot 2 IDs 426 433 and another one I couldn't catch. I had it alpha tagged wrong in a secondary radio.I just checked, I'm still seeing ENCRY on talk group 1001...Security
I've totally done that myself before ...
I'm hearing (and seeing) 463.700 TGID 1001/SL-1 (Security-1) with radio traffic in the clear tonight. RID 409 appears to be the Security Base. Calling out disturbances with guests, making contact cards etc. Might have some radios that are programmed as secure which is causing the confusion. I previously submitted 463.700 TGID 1001/SL-2 as (Security-2). 462.125 TGID 1007/SL-1 as (Engineering/Maintenance) and 462.125 TGID 1013/SL-2 as (Transport).
If @ChicagoRadio736 can verify if these submissions are still correct?

That is pretty much what I have except I have tg 1013 untagged haven't heard anything on it yet. As of this post security units are still transmitting in the clear. I have not seen any ENC traffic today.
