It varies from state to state, and enforcement varies from locality
to locality.

Some states have 'exemptions' that may include HAMs, or even
anyone with a 'valid' reason.

And enforcement in some states even tries to set their own standard...

Get LOCAL advice before you procede. Not just the letter of the
law, but the 'real story' about what is going on with regard to enforcement
and/or harassment.

There are no Ohio laws that keep you from having a scanner in your car.

Depends what state or country you are in. Michigan allows if you have
permit from State Police or are a licensed amateur radio operator (Ham).
