[RoninJoliet]

It now sounds like “Shorewood, Channahon, Braidwood and Wilmington are now “ENC” on TG 33901

Let's hope DuPage take a little longer but I know it's coming sooner than later. By this time next year, we will all be fire buffs lol.

If memory serves me right.. Dan O'Shea was part of Elgin when they switched, he bought encryption to Rockford.. I wouldn't be as optimistic..

Does anyone know if Lockport/Crest Hill PD is going encrypted? Seems to be the last clear police dispatch on WESCOM as of now.

 

[RoninJoliet]

So far Lockport/ Cresthill are in the open, I figure there police chiefs want to remain this way as all the rest of Wescom PD are " ENC"

 

[KEVINWSFF819]

We still have Chicago Police City Wides to listen to in the clear.

 

[Omie09]

That, and the delayed broadcasts. I'm hoping DU-COMM stays in the clear for as long as possible, same with Will county sheriff.

 

[Omie09]

Plainfield just stopped patching with Lockport/Crest hill PD at night. I would listen to the patch after about 10:30PM, and hear everything unencrypted. I guess someone just realized.

 

[RoninJoliet]

Lockport /Cresthill dispatch TG 33911 so far still in the clear ?

 

[Omie09]

Yes, I was listening earlier today.

 

[Omie09]

Lockport and Crest hill are on Event 1 TG. Does anyone know why? They are in the clear on that channel right now. Hopefully not encrypting...

Everyother PD dispatch for Wescom is encrypted don’t hold your breath

 

[RoninJoliet]

Ya they have held off , maybe one of the police chiefs doesn't like ENC but I figure they maybe re tooling TG 33911

 

[Bri112233445]

They switched back to the main channel this morning at 8AM encrypted

 

[Omie09]

Too bad. Coincidentally just over a year after plainfield.

 

[ChicagoRadio736]

I wonder if and when the Will County Public Safety system will go encrypted.
