Yep. as of last week.

Sorry for your loss. It is the trend of all LE's looking into the future.

Not much to discuss, as @u2brent said, it is the wave of the future. And, once they go the big E seldomly do they go back. Just a tribute to good radio salespeople and the changing face of crime in the world.

I somewhat expected this when their radios got touched for the upcoming P2 transition. It was a good run for some of the last clear LE comms. A real pain to RX 8+ miles away, over the PA/De line but I can optimize that antenna run for MD FIRST now.

WPD dispatch was a joke anyway... what are we missing out on hearing besides the hourly shooting.

Wait, they weren't fully encrypted on the old Smartzone system as the RRDB states?

Nope, only TAC and Ops. Main dispatch was clear.

I only changed the db to E recently. Yeah, much in the clear.

Ha, my fault for not taking my own advice I've given others, not paying attention to the change history
