True. There have been a few "interesting" moments. :-)

'specially when you pick up a 911 call coming from one of those. TV news
outlets are always hungry for hot stuff like that and will most likely give
you $$$ if you send 'em a tape or MP3 file of something like that that you
picked up on your scanner.

What about the newer phones that say they put out "2.6 ghz" or
something like that?

My favorite is the baby monitors. The new ones are always on since they
plug into the wall. Makes for nice room bugs. Interesting entertainment
for a 14 yr old when the neighbors are going at it loud enough to be heard
clearly in the baby's room.
