Just wondering if an older BCD996T will still pickup OPP ?
Yes it will work for now. However, OPP will be switching to an encrypted system within the next year or two. And even a P2 scanner won't be able to decrypt it.Thank you. I thought you needed a P2 now.
You do not need a P2 to get OPP you just need a P25 trunking scanner.Thank you. I thought you needed a P2 now.
You don't even need a P25 trunking scanner. Any scanner that week handle a Motorola 3600baud (Smartnet/SmartZone) system will work.You do not need a P2 to get OPP you just need a P25 trunking scanner.
You do need APCO 25 voice decoding to hear OPP which is what I meant. Whether it's 3600 or 9600 etc you need "APCO-25 Common Air Interface" I wasn't referring to a pure P25 system. Either way we are both right.You don't even need a P25 trunking scanner. Any scanner that week handle a Motorola 3600baud (Smartnet/SmartZone) system will work.
The 996XT would be a nice, cost effective scanner for the OPP.
That is a great question. Suppose to be online early next year and be done by 2023. I doubt that will happen.Is the encrypted system currently being setup ? I heard that its going to be delayed for quite some time due to deficit from the pandemic.
