Does anyone know what radio system is being used by the Saskatchewan Government Highways Department? Thanks
I think rusty15 is looking for information about Saskatchewan Department of Highways (SDH) and not Saskatchewan Highway Patrol (SHP).
SHP is on PPSTN and is encrypted.
SDH is using encrypted NXDN radios on their VHF channel.
Neither of these agencies can be monitored with a scanner.
This is Saskatchewan !
That makes sense. Still the encryption part however doesn't. My theory is that they know people can listen in on them and CHOOSE to have the encryption option on. Stil, what's so secretive about fixing roads that they choose to encrypt? I don't understand. There is lots of things that government services don't want the public hearing even if its as small as banter talk over the radios.

Someone get that radio a wet nap (and maybe a can of air).
