Radio encryption in Fayette County

Fayette stands apart from other Ohio MARCS-IP counties on the kind of encryption rather than the amount: the Fayette County Sheriff, the county's lone verified agency, uses P25 ADP. ADP is the proprietary, comparatively weak option in the P25 family, which quietly undercuts the officer-safety case usually made for going dark, since a department choosing it is not treating the content as genuinely secret. It still shuts out every ordinary listener, and here it is applied to all of the sheriff's traffic.
