That is about 75% of the reason I went and got my FCC license - to legally
have a scanner in my vehicle. It is well worth the effort. Now that I am a
ham radio op I do 2-meters on the road now, too...beats the hell out of CB

Hi guys,

Long time listener, first time caller here.
I have a question.
Is it legal to carry a police scanner in my car?
I have no interest in monitoring the police.
I have the scanner in case TSHTF and I need to hear what's going on.
Wind direction and weather from KEC83, local radio, instructions. That
sort of thing.
I live in Maryland and work in Baltimore City.

I Googled but didn't come up with much.
Maybe a good site recommendation?

Thank you guys. Great NGs, very informative.

Sandy.
