Hello everyone, this is my first post. I’ve been lurking for years! So I finally upgraded to a Motorola xts2500 I’ve always used the cheap Chinese radios before. Can I rx Sussex Sheriff dept with my Motorola? Or vsp? I have Sussex fire, surry sheriff dept and surry fire & rescue.
Thank you

Last I checked, Sussex Co Sheriff runs full time encryption. VSP currently is still in the clear. Sussex County is on the prison's P25 Phase 2. That's one big jump from CCR to a Motorola. I hope you are familiar with Motorola and programming. That's about all I got, I live in Virginia Beach. I'm sure someone with better knowledge will pipe up soon and can help you a bit better than I.

Surry is upgrading to TDMA, an xts2500 wont work on the new system unless the talkgroups are FDMA. You'll probably need a Motorola APX or Harris XG series once they switch over. Sussex sheriff is fully encrypted, Waverly/Wakefield pd mobiles are encrypted, but dispatch is in the clear.

Waverly's Police Department was absorbed by the Sussex Co. SO in 2021. I don't believe Wakefield has it's own department anymore either.
That’s correct, I have Sussex fire, surry fire, surry sheriff dept in my radio, I was trying to figure out vsp. I handle most of the water systems in surry and Sussex counties and should like to keep up with fires and wrecks.

Has anyone helped you on the VSP end yet?
