Is it really possible to use a scanner without being exposed?

Perhaps you should wear better fitting clothes.

There are some pretty small scanners available, I'm currently using an Icom
R5 which is about the size of the smaller cellphones out today. You can get
very small general use antennas as well, I use a 3/4inch one and a 1.5inch
one for most things. Plug a discreet earphone into it and route the wire
through your jacket and it looks as though your using a handsfree
cellphone.

Also, take a look at the Scott E-Vest http://www.scottevest.com/ for
clothing that is somewhat 'stealthy' for carrying gear.
