A STA was granted for Williamson County...

Reading the justification it sounds like a little drama happened...

They were doing some radio testing and adjustments on the WILCO NW tower in Florence last month that was related to this STA.

I have been hearing some rumors from a valid Wilco source that they are getting a lot of pressure to DROP some encryption off some of the channels. I sure hope this is true. I think they would still keep it for some TAC or SWAT channels but dispatch in the clear?

I sure hope so.

I wonder why I guess more important people with scanners are asking it. Plus it's expensive. Let me know when something changes because I have all the encrypted talkgroups locked out

Williamson County SO is on Live PD.

Yes, but I would prefer being the one who changed the channel, not a group of folks deciding what I need to watch. Wilco has always been a strange place on planet earth.
