Actually the act of listening to phone conversations IS illegal. Possession of the scanner may not be. Courts have ruled that listening to wireless and cordless phone conversations without a warrant is the same as illegal wire tapping. I know personally of someone that was charged and convicted of it. So where the mere possession of the scanner may be 'grandfathered' as [email protected] claims, by willfully programming the scanner to the cellular frequencies and listening to a conversation is, as I stated earlier, Illegal. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, November 27, 2004 6:50 PM Subject: Re: [UnidenBC785D] Digest Number 461 I am here to report that there is still much cellular traffic to listen to in the USA with a 1984 Bearcat 200xlt - I have 2 of them & they were mfg before the Cellular Ban of 1986. In other words they are 'grandfathered' and therefore completely LEGAL ;>) sts707 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] If you have come here to find out about the 785D you have come to the right place!
