I was scanning there regular northern channels the past few days and noticed that I wasnt hearing anything from them. I switched off thier ctcss tones and to my surprise P25 digital noise is now coming from thier channels 163.625/163.675. both channels are now clear P25 digital. so for those of you that dont have a P25 scanner your outa luck listening to them anymore :( luckly there are afew of us that do. xjf79 |

An update from Central Washington ... I am still hearing US Border Patrol on analog. Have not heard P25 traffic yet. Will keep monitoring. (I am glad I work for a 2-way shop and can hear the P25 traffic.) |

Guess I can't listen to them unless I'm working since I can't afford a digital scanner. Blaine, Lynden, and Sumas PD's use the Border Patrol Freq as well. :( |

Is the P25 encrypted? |

Most of the traffic is unencrypted at this point. |

as far as Ive heard so far, it all unencrypted P25 comms that you can listen to with a P25 digital scanner. and yes unfortunately you wont be able to listen to blaine,sumas or lynden pd units unless you invest in a p25 scanner. xjf79 |

Maybe the Federal government will send us a coupon for $40.00 to help buy a digital scanner like they do for the digital switch on TV next year. :bowrofl: Put me down for at least two. :mrgreen: |

hahahaha fat chance on that one ever happening :lol: just be happy they havent gone encrypted and maybe someday you'll have a p25 scanner and still be able to listen to them????? on the southern border front in california just about 99.999% of cbp comms are encrypted xjf79 |

I concur, Spokane Sector DHS/CBP-OBP still analog. Heard Pasco earlier today and hearing Met Falls, Oroville, and Curlew right now. No unidentified testing heard or indications of change noted recently. Will continue to monitor. |
