[FedCom] ProVoice on Fed Channels?

[tvsjr]

Nitpick-

If it's federal stuff, it's almost certainly not DVP-XL. DVP was Moto's
first encryption algorithm, created in the 70s, and I believe it does not
hold FIPS compliance. If they're still using analog/CVSD encryption and it's
not something sexy (Fascinator, etc.), it's DES-XL. However, they do sound
almost identical (same 12Kbps CVSD encoding).
