NZ Police Digital
The P25 implementation for NZ Police in the ESB and ESC bands includes a DES/AES encryption layer securing the radio network from unauthorized monitoring. Although modern digital scanners are able to DECODE these signals, they are unable to DECRYPT them.
Currently there are a number of projects in development to monitor and analyse P25 radio networks.

If the vechicle prefix is:
- 0* = Ambulance
- 2* = Patient Transfer Service
- 8* = Special Event Ambulance
- 9* = General Event Ambulance
The digit after the number is the unit in order of the shift so first unit of the day in order
