Talk to your radio supplier, there are many encryption devices routinely used on VHF and UHF.

Of course encryption is not impossible on HF, just a bit more difficult.

Whatever, both commercial and military uses are using encryption on HF.

Commercial and military use encryption with well known backdoors on HF, using bands only they are licensed to use with proprietary hardware.

This is why proprietary solutions are non-starters.

Civilians deserve real encryption they can control with provable privacy.
