Strictly private radio
>A Wellington The police are believed to be ready to fit scrambling gear to at least some of their radio equipment in a bid to foil eavesdroppers. When the scrambling devices are fitted to police radios, persons listening to police frequencies will not be able to decipher what is said — unless they, too. have descrambling equipment.
The director of operations at police national headquarters (Chief Superintendent B. R. Davies) said that evaluation tests of radio scrambler equipment had been made recently at Auckland and Wellington. “The police are always conscious of the need for secure radio communications, and these tests will help to establish the most efficient system for our needs,” he said.
