I had a thought. Is there such a thing as putting an IDEN southernlinc mobile into test mode to decode the audio in real time?
just a thought. i was remembering back to the old amps days when you could put an analog phone into test mode and receive audio.
for something like an ambulance service or municipal pd always operating on the same tower it may be a thought.
since southernlinc is really a trs operating on the 800 band with phone patch capabilities and they are only encrypted by virtue of using a format presently not supported in consumer scanning gear the argument could be that it is legal to listen to if you can get the proper receiving equipment.
i have read all the questions over the years and don't recall this specific idea ever coming up as a possible solution.
