Encrypted Area

 Encryption means certain frequencies are blocked & can't be monitored under any scenario.

 

There are 2 types of encryption:

  1. PARTIAL encryption
    1. Example: SWAT team, FBI, narcotics, etc.
    2. Use: Most areas have partial encryption
  2. FULL encryption
    1. Example: 100% of Pennsylvania State Police are encrypted
    2. Use: Few areas in the US have full encryption

 

There are no scanners available that can monitor encryption; there are no tricky loopholes to work around full encryption*.

 

If your area has partial encryption there are still plenty of channels you can listen to—just not encrypted channels.
