Unfortunately the pages from strongsignals.net John mentions are not
only out of date, but woefully short on data from most African, Asian and Latin American nations. Is there anything out there more current or complete? Thanks, Victoria.

I can tell you all receivers, transmitters and transceivers are illegal in
Singapore. You can buy scanners there but you must be a foreign national. Its just totally illegal in China. "victoria patel" wrote in message om...

^ Sure, if you have a year off to spare and $10-12K. I'd never be able to save that much on my income. How many of those languages do you speak? If only one or two then a wide-range radio receiver will probably only be good for listening to aviation communications. Frank |
I'm fluent in Hindi and Urdu (parents came from India and Pakistan
respectively) as well as Arabic, French, Spanish and German. I'm a linguist by profession and teach language skills to employees of companies who send their people abroad. I've found from previous travel that in many cities a lot of embassy/consular radio traffic is in either English or French, regardless of what language is spoken in the country...

Laws are changing faster than rabbits make babies... ;-) So it would be a sysiphus work to keep such a list up to date. If you are interested in the german laws regarding to scanners i would email them to you on request. Or just join to the german speaking group on news:de.alt.radio-scanner There's a lot of well knowing people on that subject. Please feel free to post questions in english. But as you are familar with the german language it is much easier to explain something in german ;-) Basic thing in germany is: You are allowed to "own" everything(!) on receivers and(!) transmitters (wich was forbidden 8 years ago, in case not having a licence). Nowadays the use(!) of scanners in germany is restricted on CE-confirmation and to receive only transmissions directed to the public. So listening to any other services may cause some difficulties if cought _in_flagranti_. Some laws are somewhat indifferent. So some judges (with rare basical technical knowledge) tend to say: Services who don't want to be listenable on (widely used) scanners will have to use real encryption (not only voice inversion) to prevent unwanted listening. But do not count on this.... Carrying a used(!) radio(-scanner) with you for personal use is no problem on the customs. They are not interested in technical issiues like CE-confirmation, frequency range, etc. But not having the CE, just powering it up would be illegal. But who should bring an action on you for this....? ;-) regards, Volker |
