Radio encryption in Chesapeake County
Chesapeake's only record is Chesapeake City Schools, which encrypts all its channels with P25 DES-OFB. Two systems appear in the record, the Chesapeake system and the Virginia Statewide Agencies Radio System (STARS), and the school entry is verified against RadioReference. Of the four talkgroups tracked here, three are encrypted and one is in the clear. No police, sheriff or fire agency is listed, so this record says nothing about local law enforcement encryption in Chesapeake; the live STARS and Chesapeake listings are where to check that.
