It varys by state. Some places its illegal to carry a scanner without
a ham license. Michigan for one unless they changed it.

Hopefully you are unable to pass your genes on, but if you had a daughter, I
hope she never experiences the real scum of a father that you could be. I
think you should be hunted down.

You could get a CB with weather radio coverage, or a ham transceiver with
extended receive (get your license first). I have a scanner in my car, but it's
mounted in the dash, and when I get pulled over, I make sure it's turned off !

Minnesota is another one of those states that insists you have a ham license
to carry scanning equipment in your car. If you aren't a ham, one can apply
for a permit to have one too.

You might check the archives of this group for a recent thread
using the words "mobile" and "installed" There was an issue in some
state over language in the law about requiring mobile scanners to be
"installed" i.e., does a simple lighter power plug constitute
"installed" or must it be hard-wired and non-removable?
