Most police scanners will not pick up traffic these days due to encryption. Youngest child is a first responder and cannot pick up most counties around him due to encryption. He loves to visit me and listen to all the traffic around here. Apparently no one spent the money to upgrade near me.
Pretty sure he is at least as podunk as us, but somebody managed to get a grant for encryption. I understand the authorities not wanting the criminals to know where they are at any given moment, but I also understand the public wanting to know when the trouble is headed their way.
