I have 3 D-Star radio's and two P-25 ASIII's with DES-XL Encryption units in them. I also own a Keyloader for the ASIII's. There is one way to get around the Encryption Issue. You come up on the frequency you intend to use it on, in the clear, Announce the Daily Key, and say, "join us if you can". This is done more than you would believe across the country and makes the Key Public, not private. You do have to be on the right frequency at the right time to get the key, but it is Published. I also hold Commercial Licenses that enables me to do the same without the announcement in the ASIII's.
