if federal law supercedes state law, then how are anti-scanner laws legal???
"radioguy" wrote in message ... Irregardless of the ecpa, try to listen in on military tactical comms and let them find out about it.. they tend to call that espionage. Which is why most scanners don't have the tactical freqs. in them... Also, it depends upon your USE of the intercepted comms. There is an enhancement for using a police scanner in furtherance of a crime. |

In most SDRs, it is only software (firmware in the cheaper ones), it is only a matter of tweaking the source code to receive any freq within range of the circuitry, or reprogramming the PIC in the cheaper ones ... The military should always use deep encryption if they are serious--otherwise, I would suspect you were only receiving transmissions of non-importance, or those broadcast for disinformation purposes ...

I kind of like the paragraph above. A SDR ( software defined radio) is only software? Sounds logical doesn't it. If I go buy one and take the lid off I'll just find a CD ROM in there with the software on it right? I like the firmware being something other than software comment too. The military should always use deep encryption if they are serious--otherwise, I would suspect you were only receiving transmissions of non-importance, or those broadcast for disinformation purposes ... That's why all milcom listeners have their boots on. I recommend hip waders for you. No telling what you will get yourself into next. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

There is an enhancement for using a police scanner in furtherance of a crime. News group heard edited Right, private knowledge is OK. Telling someone or publishing the communications is another matter. The scanner magazines will publish the frequencies, where and when traffic is heard but not the content. Pickup a copy of Monitoring Times or Popular communications. They have sections on military and police communications not to mention feature stories about the same. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

Always better to hide the installation well and don't pick up any hitch
