Radio encryption in El Paso County
A single verified record represents El Paso County, a City of El Paso entry encrypting all its monitored channels with P25 AES-256. Three systems are listed for the county: the El Paso Regional Communications System, a Ysleta Del Sur Pueblo system and R.T.C. Communication Services. Only one of the eight catalogued talkgroups is encrypted, leaving seven in the clear, so most of what is monitored here remains receivable. The narrow agency coverage is the caveat: with one record on file, this dataset does not describe the encryption status of individual police or fire departments in the county, and RadioReference is the place to check those.
