Would anybody know if the wireless headset radios that football coaches use,

Thanks for the help,

The NFL uses an encrypted wireless system built by Motorola to insure
that neither you, or the opposing team can listen in. You can probably
pick it up on a scanner, but since it is encrypted, you won't hear
anything intelligible.
