Radio encryption in Berkeley County
Berkeley County has one verified record: the Berkeley County Sheriff's Office, encrypting specific channels with P25 AES-256 on Palmetto 800, the statewide system. The office is listed as partially rather than fully encrypted. At the talkgroup level, though, none of the county's catalogued talkgroups are in the clear; eight of the 10 on file are marked encrypted and none clear, so nothing in the monitored set is currently receivable. With a single agency represented, this does not cover municipal police or fire departments in the county, and the Palmetto 800 listings on RadioReference are the place to check those.
