Frequently Asked Questions
Is EMT Ambulance, Inc radio encrypted?
EMT Ambulance, Inc is listed in our records with P25 DES-OFB encryption — a listing we haven't yet verified against live talkgroup data. This agency is listed in our database as encrypting all of its radio communications, including routine dispatch. The listing is unverified — confirm current status on the live RadioReference database.
Can I listen to EMT Ambulance, Inc on a police scanner?
Likely not, if the listing is accurate: our database lists EMT Ambulance, Inc as fully encrypted using P25 DES-OFB, which no consumer scanner can decode. The listing is unverified — check the live RadioReference database for current status.
Why do agencies like EMT Ambulance, Inc encrypt their radio?
Officer safety and operational security are the reasons agencies give. What rarely comes with that explanation is Multi County-specific evidence that open communications ever caused a problem, while the loss of public oversight and the friction with still-unencrypted neighboring agencies are both immediate and real.
Can Multi County reverse the encryption decision?
Yes. Encryption is a policy choice made by department leadership or elected officials, not a technical requirement, so it can be reversed the same way. Public pressure, city council advocacy, and organized local coalitions have reversed encryption decisions elsewhere.
What can I do about EMT Ambulance, Inc encryption?
Contact the officials who oversee EMT Ambulance, Inc's budget directly and ask why full encryption was chosen over partial alternatives. Pair that with a FOIA request for recordings and policy records, and look for an existing coalition in Multi County, or start one, since agencies respond differently to organized, sustained pressure than to individual complaints.
