Trenton: VSELP only or Encrypted?

[FuelForFire]

I am thinking about piecing together an Astro Saber to monitor Trenton PD. In a previous post some one mentioned they were running encryption but it wasnt clear if they were confusing VSELP for encryption or not.

Anyone know for sure?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Fire up trunker and you'll know for sure.

As far as I know they are VSELP. Fire is analog.

Vselp

I believe it was my post your referring to. I had mentioned how I was not able to recieve Trenton nor Edison on my Pro-2096 citing the 96's inability to monitor a VESELP system along with any scanners inability to monitor an Encrypted frequency. As far as I know the Trenton is not Encrypted.

There is no encryption on their PD talkgroups it is just VSELP .
I would wait until rebanding is done before you put together your Astro just to see what they are going to do.
FuelForFire PM me for further.

Great, thats the answer I was hoping for.

Any idea when they have plans to start rebanding? Will rebanding force them to upgrade to IMBE?

Thanks,

Mike

I would think so because V-Selp is not supported any more. The big M kind of has you there by the throat. Once they stop supporting something you are forced to upgrade to the latest and greatest stuff.
