Heard P-25, plus encryption, approx. 1900 hrs EDT. Have not heard freq 
used in recent memory, and have been scanning it for at least 1.5 years. 
Looked at an "S" meter, would estimate transmitter site within a 50-mile 
or less radius of Augusta. Both sides of the transmission had equal 
readings, leading one to believe it was a repeater. I was on a 
well-elevated plateau.

Other "fed" transmissions (besides FPS 417.2R) here in greater central 
Maine have been normal encryption, or "in the clear." Pro-96 nailed this 
one as digital.

Thought I'd toss it out to FEDCOM for Group reference.

Best to all,

Loren
