Radio Shack had one, but they fell afoul of the ECPA (Electronics
Communication Privacy Act). And/Or Radio Shack's cell phone
marketing.

AMPS (the old analog cell phone system) was a great way to determine
business ethics. Ask the salesman if the phone system was private
and watch him lie his ass off. Analog cell phones used former TV
channels and the same modulation as TV, so any old TV set could pick
some or all of them on channels 70-83. And a UHF band TV sound receiver
would, too.
