Default if federal law supercedes state law, then how are anti-scanner laws legal???

Irregardless of the ecpa, try to listen in on military tactical comms and
let them find out about it.. they tend to call that espionage. Which is why
most scanners don't have the tactical freqs. in them...

Also, it depends upon your USE of the intercepted comms. There is an
enhancement for using a police scanner in furtherance of a crime.

Right, private knowledge is OK. Telling someone or publishing the
communications is another matter. The scanner magazines will publish the
frequencies, where and when traffic is heard but not the content.

Pickup a copy of Monitoring Times or Popular communications. They have
sections on military and police communications not to mention feature
stories about the same.
