Hey guys,
Need a little clarification regarding the use of scanners in cars in Florida. This is clear to me: 1) You cannot install a scanner in your car. 2) "Install" has been determined by the state attorney general to mean a radio using power from the car and/or connected to an external antenna. Meaning of course, handhelds with a rubber duck are fine as long as they run on internal batteries. Here is where I'm not sure........ There are a few exceptions to the above law, one if which is for licensed Amateur (HAM) radio operators. Does this exception mean a HAM can install a scanner? Or does it mean the HAM can have a transceiver which also receives police frequencies (but doesn't transmit on them of course?) Thanks for any input! |
