Me too and the bad thing if its local we listen to It may not be noticed until we get out in a distance
Don KA9QJG
PS . Many yrs ago had a small Scanner business Communications Research if you are old you may of seen My adds in Monitoring Times and Pop Com ..I would have scanners on display and an Officer or Ham would come in and transmit to hear themselves and blew the front end. also if they walked across the carpet static build up would occur and I had metal telescopic ants on them they would also get zapped and blow the front end.. I cured both problems by putting to diodes back to back on the ant input it takes the static and strong RF to ground .. Not easy to do with the new scanners .. Also if you have a scanner with a metal ant inside the house and walk across the carpet to adjust or touch the ant the static discharge can take out the front End ,,always ground your hand to something ..
I watched a guy selling a scanner at a Hamfest AKA Flea Market I guy ask to see it and programmed his Two Way transmit Freq ..keyed it up and said testing 123 of course the Scanner heard him But he just blew the front end , He bought it took it home and it would not receive very well He got on his ham radio and bad mouthed the person he bought the scanner from WOW

Real Men drill holes and do the job right LOL...make sure it’s your vehicle and not the Wife’s they do not understand ,,, But a mounted one done properly will work much better not only for a Scanner but also if you us a Transmitter . And a reminder if you have your expensive scanner antenna on a Vehicle and you use a transmitter you can blow the front end on the scanner ..Especially on the same band or close call.. I have done it a few times.. The biggest problem I have had with the Mag mounts is the coax under the molding and Water coming down into the vehicle .Also it is a pain to remove all at the vehicle wash

Michael Martin, Well Said! The prime directives of scanning! This is the exact advice I give to new listeners. Thanks! Rule 1: Do not make it obvious you have a scanner in your vehicle Rule 2: Do not look like a porcupine on your car (Multiple Antennas) - See Rule 1. Rule 3: Do not FLAUNT your scanner equipment to anyone and everyone - See Rule 1. Rule 4: Do not show up at ANY crime scene and have your scanner blaring - See Rule 1. Rule 5: Do not do ANYTHING that will get you noticed by law enforcement - See Rule 1. Rule 6: Do not SPOUT OFF anything to a law enforcement officer about the legality of/your rights - See Rule 1. Rule 7: If you are pulled over/stopped by a law enforcement officer, PLEASE turn OFF your scanner - See Rule 1.

What is not specified is whether indirect reception 'counts'.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
This is what has not been tested in court. Cellphones are capable of receiving streaming which seems to meet the criteria of the law. Streaming of those signals can be received on cellphones. Cellphones can be carried by an individual. It's not something I would want to defend in court since it could go either way. The KEY here is "capable of receiving signals". It does not specify that the receiving has to be direct or that it must be "capable of TUNING to those signals". Joe M.

Re: Can anyone about laws on scanner
That's not necessarily true. This is Indiana's definition encoded in the law: (c) As used in this section, “police radio” means a radio that is capable of sending or receiving signals transmitted on frequencies assigned by the Federal Communications Commission for police emergency purposes and that: (1) can be installed, maintained, or operated in a vehicle; or (2) can be operated while it is being carried by an individual. The term does not include a radio designed for use only in a dwelling. As you can see, it has to receive
signals transmitted on police frequencies, which a phone does not.
To my knowledge, there hasn't been any court cases determining one
way or the other.

I was given a verbal warning for carrying it on my person while walking around the apartment complex in which I lived at the time. They told me I could go to the Sheriff's Office and get a permit, but the communications director refused to give me one because I wasn't a cop, firefighter, or ham operator, all of which are already exempt from the law anyway. -Matt

Re: Can anyone about laws on scanner
Mark French
When I went to school in Kingsville I passed through the Border Patrol checkpoints several times and never had a problem. I have only been asked once if that was a scanner in the car. I said yes and he said he stopped me because of a burned out taillight. He asked what I listened to and I replied I listened to the fire departments and EMS so I would know where the accidents on the highway were. Sure enough the fire tone went off on his radio and my scanner. He said now we both know where that accident is and got in his car and sped off. No warning or ticket. I have driven all over Central and south Texas and several other states and have only been asked once about the two antennas on the car. The antennas were for two bearcat scanners made in the eighties. One was UHF and the other VHF. I still use the antennas but the scanners are the TRX 1and the BCD 996P2. I also have a TRX 2 and BCD 325P2. Happy scanning.

Don't come in here name calling. It is very undignified. In California, having a scanner in your car and listening to it is NOT illegal. There are other states that prohibit it. A couple of laws in California concerning scanners are, their use *to avoid prosecution* is illegal and repeating certain communication is prohibited Also using a scanner to evesdrop on cordless or cellphones is illegal and using frequency dividers on a scanner is illegal. If you aren't satisfied with that, use a public library to look up and read your local laws. Libraries have digital catalogs, just in case you haven't been near one during this century.

Re: WHAAAAAT?

Rule 1: Do not make it obvious you have a scanner in your vehicleUnless you are using a handheld with the stock rubber antenna, you’ll need at least ONE antenna somewhere on your vehicle. Rule 2: Do not look like a porcupine on your car (Multiple Antennas)If you DO have multiple antennas, at least don’t use mag mounts with exposed coax. Nothing says “wanker” more than a car with six antennas, all on mag mounts with the coax all over the place. Rule 4: Do not show up at ANY crime scene and have your scanner blaring -Generally a good idea not to show up at ANY crime scenes, anyway. Rule 5: Do not do ANYTHING that will get you noticed by law enforcement.Good advice. Rule 6: Do not SPOUT OFF anything to a law enforcement officer about theCops LOVE it when you tell them about your “rights”. And don’t forget to remind them who’s paying their salary. Make sure you get their badge numbers. Rule 7: If you are pulled over/stopped.Broken THIS rule many times. About two years ago, was pulled over by California Highway Patrol. Was going 75 (in a 65 posted zone), crossed into a carpool lane but just past the double yellow lines. When he stopped me, he asked what all the radios were for (one scanner, one dual-band (ham) radio, and three handhelds in the glove compartment). Maybe he liked my explanation and that I had my daughter in the car with me, but he returned my license and registration and said, “Just drive a little slower and be more careful.” Oh, I didn’t mention, not only was the scanner ON, but it was locked on that particular area’s channel. Thank you, Officer. Have a nice day, Officer.

A couple of laws in California concerning scanners are, their use *to avoid prosecution* is illegal and repeating certain communication is prohibited Also using a scanner to evesdrop on cordless or cellphones is illegal and using frequency dividers on a scanner is illegal. If you aren't satisfied with that, use a public library to look up and read your local laws. Libraries have digital catalogs, just in case you haven't been near one during this century.

Joe:
Could you please explain further what the fruitcakes in California did? Does that make ANY scanner illegal in California? Only those scanners that can be charged while in a car? Mobile/base vs. hand held?
Some states have laws that prohibit scanners in a car unless you have a valid amateur radio license. Do you have a list of those states?
General comment on scanning. Had a week of the usual protests (riots) here in Orlando. Everything scrambled. Could not listen to anything. Unless Uniden comes up with a scanner that can decode scrambled voice, the only thing to listen to will be taxi cabs, but they are all going to Uber so that means cell phones. I think we have a dying hobby.
