Most channels are not encrypted, but a few such as swat/narcotics are encrypted. I am quite happy about this, but also slightly worried about the future of being able to scan the frequencies. What are some reasons a LE agency might not be encrypted? Are there significant extra costs/complexities with operating encrypted communications? View article »

I tried turning the radio off and reprogramming it again and now my laptop will not recognize the radio. It says it’s a failure when I look at the Device Manager on my laptop. The radio also has deleted channels from zones and scan lists. Basically it’s moved channels into random zones and scan list. Does anyone know of a way that I can reset this radio from the buttons on the radio? Thanks. View article »
