Hi

Can someone tell me if it is possible to track down someone only
listening to a frequency using an Icom Ic R2 scanner in a crowd of
people? I would think that if the Icom scanner is only listening to a
signal than it cannot be tracked by someone else. I would also think
that the only way it could be tracked was if it were transmitting a
signal. Can someone please answer this question for me?


S.

The IF freq of the scanner could be tracked. A common IF is 10.7 MHz. Look
in the units manual it will tell you the IF.
The BBC does this in the UK to see if you have paid the license fee for your
TV.
