Radio encryption in City Of Hampton County
Encryption in the City of Hampton is uniform in method if not in reach: all three agencies on record, including the police department, the sheriff's office and the Hampton Park Rangers, run P25 ADP on the Hampton, VA system. The police department and the park rangers are logged as encrypting everything, while the sheriff's office confines it to tactical channels, and that sheriff's entry is the one still unverified. ADP is the entry-level tier of P25 encryption, but it shuts a scanner out just as completely as anything stronger.
