I can imagine.

With my broadband scanner, I've been able to pick up phone conservations in
the neighborhood that were being conducted by people with those early model
cordless phones. However, they were old women who spent most of their time
talking about the various medications they were taking.

Would there really be anything in that "forbidden" frequency range to
listen to? It's my understanding that here in the U.S. almost all
cellular systems are now digital anyway.


Heck - even if they were analog and in the clear - It would strike me as
particularly boring (I'm sure opinions would vary) to eavesdrop on cell
calls. Probably like 80m on any given week-night, except the callers
wouldn't
ID every 10 minutes (or so...).

When I had a cell capable scanner it was extremely interesting! Never,
ever a
dull moment.
