[FedCom] is there still life here ??

So very true. When we went just to P25 it slowed down our comms. When split
seconds count, you have to wait for your radio to sync up, and then to
encrypt them on top of that. Just not a good idea.

If anything, the big lesson we should have learned after 9/11 is there needs
to be more interop plans in place.  Encryption doesn't help that, and I had
heard someone from Motorola even thinks that encrypting general dispatch and
day to day activities should be in the clear for interoperability concerns.

Which, of course makes NO sense at all...

Spook (hey, remember the Spooks forum?) transmits in the clear, for the
universe to hear openly, in real time, one or two dudes are afraid to
mention it in an almost unknown forum, after the fact.

That's like everyone watching a soda pop commercial during the super bowl,
but afraid to acknowledge it, 23 years later.

Genius.
