There are some UV5r type units that have a rudimentary voice encryption capability. These might be worthwhile looking at. They are more expensive than the 5r of course, but may meet your requirements.

Exmple of a radio with voice encryption: This one has 8 scrambler codes, and will program to work across all of the PMR channels.

A simpler way is to talk in codewords. NR has discussed this earlier. Use of short burst transmission of simple codes that are known only to members of your group is a simple solution, and one employed by the military to this day. My group uses this as its contingency protocol.

eg: "Dogs, 20, B, 3k" may mean <<Intruders present in local area, 20 in number, Southeast of Base, range 3000 meters>>

Its also important to use the minimum power needed to get the message through so as not to have your transmissions detected over an excessively wide area.

Yay the common sense virus has finally got through to you electro geeks
