[TrunkCom] I wonder what cities that have the older style P-25 ( VSLEP ) are going to do if they upgrade. If they go to P-25, no more privacy.

Right, that is what I meant to say, but I am just wanting to clarify since
many still think that the reason for digital is to encrypt always.  We
don't have encryption with our system, but may get it with the new
scanners coming for things like the DB talk groups.  Right now many people
including myself are upset with the inability to listen on on the system
as easily as we once could.
