Wayne County (89) Law Encryption.

[Ace9133uwu]

JAN 30, 2025.
All Wayne County and City of Richmond law enforcement has officially flipped the switch to full-time encryption. I called Wayne County EMA and spoke to the director who did confirm that law enforcement officials "made it a priority" to go with full-time encryption. As of right now, there are not any plans of encrypting Richmond Fire Department (154.400 VHF) or Wayne County fire (154.010 VHF)/Reid EMS who share the same TGID (12437).

Confirmed Encrypted TGID's as follows:
12435 Wayne County Sheriff
12436 Richmond Police Department
12440 89 OPS 1
12443 89 OPS 4
12444 89 OPS 5
12445 89 TALK

Sounds like RPD and WCSO fell for the ERS Wireless salesmen's nonsense again - there's a radio shop that sells Kenwood kit LESS THAN 1 MILE from city hall and the courthouse!

RFD is sensible enough to buy their stuff from the local guy though

Kenwood can be encrypted as well. It’s a standard. It’s all about Hoosier SAFE-T! Not!
The Government in this town / county has become very corrupt and non-transparent!
The people in this town should have not posted the crap on Facebook; and definitely not rebroadcast it! I’m from the old school where when you scanned, you basically took an oath to keep it to yourself!

Yeah buddy, I agree with you 100%. There are/were at least three "community" scanner Facebook groups running simultaneously for Wayne county alone for a few years. Every single little call was posted. Stubbed toe? Posted. Self-inflicted GSW? Posted.

I won't blame the Facebook groups entirely- but they definitely didn't help. Now I have around $2,000 worth of radio equipment that's almost useless to me because of the big E. At least fire is still in the clear.

When you guys figure out the encryption... Make sure to put it on facebook!

How hard is it to program it to a SDS100?

 

[VASCAR2]

The SD100/200 can be easily programmed using Sentinel soft ware or by using your zip code. You can manually program or change the programming by using the key pad on the scanner. Mark’s easier to read scanner manual is good for a reference.

If you are asking how to program encryption, you can't.
