![]() "Brian Reay" wrote in message ... There was a documentary on the radio in the UK about the amateur involvement in "9/11". In the documentary the statement was made that, in the USA, amateurs are legally allowed to listen to the radio traffic of the emergency services. Can anyone confirm this please and may put some details to it? -- 73 Brian, G8OSN www.g8osn.org.uk Yes it is true. Actually the general population is also allowed to legally listen to radio traffic of the emergency services. You can buy a scanner in just about any store that handles radios. There are publications available listing the frequencies used by the emergency services on an area by area basis. Some states do prohibit scanners in vehicles though. However, they do not prohibit them in the home. Dee D. Flint, N8UZE |
