I know it is not legal but can a regular scanner that covers 900 mhz
listen to cordless phone conversations?

Since most 900 Mhz phones are Digital...

The Answer is No.

And I say maybe.
I have been able to listen to all 900 fones I have tried. Im not
saying that it is not possible at all, just that all the ones I've
tried work fine -- ON TWO FREQUENCIES usually 902 or 903 and 925
through 927 I think...and I find that a lot of restaurants (not BK or
McD for instance) use a cordless fone. that I can pick up. My son got
****ed at me because I (not on purpose, just by accident) was eating
dinner and wham he started talking to his girlfriend. I almost puked.
I sorta remember when I was 18, now. I had forgotten about all the bs
and sweet talk. anyway he heard me say something to his mother and he
blew his top. Now he doesn't tie up my fone any more. he got a 2.4ghz
fone now and he has almost gotten over his paranoia.

This thread started, ended and started again! Yes there are phones in the
clear in WFM & NFM on 900 Mhz...
