It is a FEDERAL crime to 'use' a descrambler to intercept transmissions that
are NOT your own. Hence.... if you owned a taxi cab company and wanted to
scramble your transmissions to the cars.... you can legally do it. However
if you 'used' that descrambler/ scrambler system to intercept police or
another business transmissions you are in violation
of the law.

you
said, you didn't know. Besides my comment was to labtech1.

I was asking for knowledge first of all because I've never heard of
that
encryption before. I don't need to listen to it, I was trying to get
info
on it never heard of that encryption before. Where I used to live
didn't
Excrypt their traffic at all. Bill seriously take a breather.

I thought that the legality of owning unscramblers was made on a
state-by-state basis, there do you get this "Fed" crap?
