Late reply, but yes/no. Wise county WILL go encrypted soon, but unknown when. They originally had plans on going encrypted when, or shortly after the new system got released, but they ran out of money supposedly. So, I don’t think they’ll be going encrypted very soon, but won’t be surprised if it’s later this year, or next year. Unknown if they’ll do full encryption (which I think that’s what they had planned), or if they’ll do a Tactical.
Their secondary channel isn’t an information one. During the work weeks (Monday-Friday), it’s mainly used for transport deputies, while the main channel is for everything else. However, they sometimes do use the secondary channel for a backup channel, while the main channel is closed, or they use it like a TAC channel. The main use for it currently, is mainly just for transport deputies, or anything related to it, besides ACO (Animal control.) as the county continues to grow, the secondary channel will most likely start getting used for other things, or eventually be an INFO channel. If or when wise Co. goes encrypted, I bet they’ll encrypt that channel, and use it for info, while keeping Channel 1 open.
Here's a new license to keep an ear on.

What will those channels be used for?
I don't know. Hopefully, someone closer will be able to help figure that out.

The contact info says: ATTN POLICE CHIEF.
Just saw, something about pools? Maybe? Rhome and Boyd PD are switching to Decatur dispatch, so maybe it could be related to that at some point, although Decatur and Bridgeport will switch to wise P25 in the coming weeks-months. As far as I know (having family that are first responders for that area), they don’t have any conventional channels. Only one that still does, is Bport PD.
