Well, they might pick up cell phones, I would caution them NOT to. There is no
form of communications so well logged.
Also, each cell phone registers at each call with an assigned code which is
kept track of--false codes are ignored... you don't make a call unless they
know who you are and where you are...
No better way to locate someone than to have them carrying a cell phone, even
when they think it is off it is finking on 'em and maintaining contact with the
nearest 3 towers, if available, strange, but that is exactly the minimum number
to triangulate their exact location...
Drug dealers are very, very leery of cell phones... too many have been busted
for using 'em!

Hmmm, kinda sounds like they might even be CB'ers!!!
However, I think it just sounds like that because of the way you said it,
they
are on the internet, no doubt...

There's a better chance they would use a cellphone with an ecryption
device then a radio, or get their information through carriers and
given the information in person. The encryption rules have been on the
books since the 30's. Amateur's can uses digital codes as well as
unspecified codes above 30 MHz.
