Digital Network

Now active in most areas of Auckland

The P25 implementation for NZ Police in the ESB (VHF138 - 144 MHz) and ESC (UHF494 - 502 MHz) bands includes a 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.

Tait Communications, APCO P25 Enabled, ([AES-256] bit strength keys Digital Encrypted) Police radios in use. Rolling OTA encryption keycodes

Temporary VHF Analogue Coverage - Auckland Region

14/07/2014 This does not appear to be active anymore. Can anyone else verify and confirm?

Area 1 and Area 2 remain active. These VHF analogue channels are linked to Waikato Rural and Northland to provide coverage for units from those areas that may travel into the Auckland Region and out of coverage of their own channels. There is no UHF coverage of these channels.

Area 1 - Linked to Waikato Rural Channel
