Radio Shack had one, but they fell afoul of the ECPA (Electronics Communication Privacy Act). And/Or Radio Shack's cell phone marketing. AMPS (the old analog cell phone system) was a great way to determine business ethics. Ask the salesman if the phone system was private and watch him lie his ass off. Analog cell phones used former TV channels and the same modulation as TV, so any old TV set could pick some or all of them on channels 70-83. And a UHF band TV sound receiver would, too. Mark Zenier Googleproofaddress(account:mzenier provider:eskimo domain:com) You can also listen to analog 800 phones 21.4 mHz below the actual phone call on many scanners. There was also the trick of feeding a 45 MHz signal into a TV set to add a pseudo-carrier into the IF amp, so that you could use the fine tuning (and the inter-carrier sound system) to pick up most everything. I did that a couple of times and found that your typical cell-phone call makes the Voice of (North) Korea sound interesting in comparison. Voyerism is boring.
