As Cartman said, yep pretty smooth most will be gone in the first few minutes and then youll see a heap of scanners pop up on ebay.

Two hours to go, still no announcements.
Thought they might have said something at 10

If it were me I would've been announcing it last night so that the night crews know what's going on when they come back on shift this evening.

Just broadcast then.
Said they don't need to change zones unless instructed.
Zone 3 will be encrypted as well as zone 4 then?

Yeah okay the second announcement (2 minutes ago) was read by a different operator and finished with "...do not change zones until instructed", that makes more sense.
