Always wondered about it.
Let's say the "bad guy" steals the police radio.
I'd assume there is a way to disable the unit to not be able to transmit.
But it would still be able to receive very well.
Any thoughts?
It depends on the radio. A standard conventional system? Nope. The
radio cannot be disabled. Get into a higher end system, i.e. Astro
Sabers, or trunking, and it possibly can be 'killed' over the air.
But for the most part, if you can listen to the department over a
normal scanner, their radios cannot be modified over the air.
