You're right, scanners that go up that high are definitely more expensive,
although not hard to get. However, most, if not all, of the 2.4 GHz phones
use digital and/or spread spectrum encoding or other forms of encryption or
"anti-scanner" techniques, so it wouldn't do any good even if you could
modify the phones. Eavesdropping has gotten a lot harder lately.

It would be easier to just buy a scanner. It's no trick finding one
that
covers the 900 MHz band, and it would work a hell of a lot better.

How about 2.4 GHz band? Most scanners don't cover that band. I'm just
wondering if it is easy to modify the phone to use it as a receiver. I
could buy a used one for about $5 in garage sale.
