I guess you could spend over $2000 and buy one of these STS modems off eBay in order to monitor Pactor 4 traffic (oh, I see a
stripped down model for only %1500 also on eBay). But who would do that? Not sure if you have to buy a license to operate Pactor 4
or not.

So I guess it's not encrypted if you are willing to spend the money.

That's another problem. We WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE IT! It will be encrypted!!!

Funny thing about the reference to encryption and plain text..........  here is a full editorial from ARRL Central about that very
topic (the October 2013 It Seems To Us in QST):
