  1. When development for the RB27 was done, the Retevis programing software didn't support a "Scramble" option. This radio doesn't even support busy channel lockout (see attached screen capture). If the RB27 would have supported the scramble feature, it would have been included in CHIRP.
  2. Anyone wanting to listen to your family would just need to enable "scramble" on their radio. You should never expect privacy when using these radio services.
