I picked up a Radio Shack scanner model 2026... on the back it
says...model # 20-148B

Can I modify this version to recieve some cel calls? I read that some
can't be modified. Thanks for any info.

Why in the **** do you want to receive cell calls, first of all they change
cell sites, and most are digital, and last they are boring.

Whether you can modify the radio to pick up the frequencies or not,
you can't modify it to pick up the signals of anything other than
analog cellular, which is almost non-existent, except in the
boondocks.

Not everyone lives in a thriving metropolis... Some of us live in larger
cities where that are still plenty of analog calls. Even my own phone drops
over to analog once in a while. It depends on where you are, but seems to
happen most when using it indoors...

I DO live in a big thriving metropolis and there are plenty of 900mhz phones
around yet. Same with analog cells.
