If the Airwave encryption has been cracked I suspect it won't be too long before it is changed!

Got something about broken indicators in Bromley, sounded more like a taxi company.

It's definitely emergency services. There's even ones for American forces

It won't be real. Not for the UK anyways. Airwave/Tetra switches channel all the time and receivers have to be registered and can easily be disabled remotely even when lost. So even if the encryption was cracked (unlikely) it would make no difference.

All the ones I've seen just connect to internet streams. They don't actually scan the radio waves for live police communications.

In any case the average mobile phone doesn't use the frequency bands used by the rozzers anyway for fairly obvious reasons!

Well the OP is lying through his teeth, the police scanner apps are for the US where listening is legal.

TETRA/Airwave is encrypted in the UK.

It's possible....but unlikely!

There are so many radio channels that the police use that just trying to listen to one of them would be hard work! Even then the main force channel is only used for force wide broadcast and everything else will be on the local channels and wont make a lot of sense to anyone listening.

And like others have said... Tetra radio is encrypted.

Lol don't make me laugh. I am not lying about anything, i don't know any better. They seem very genuine to me, definitely not a taxi rank. I found it and thought it was good so shared it with people on here. I think you need to get a grip mate or get out the right side of the bed in the morning in future

Please, care to share where i told a lie?
