It's illegal, but not much you can do about it except buy a new cordless
phone with digital encryption. All cordless phones sold today have this
feature regardless of price.

Some black guy listened and intercepted my telephone conversations from
across the street using a cb radio type entity....was that legal or
illegal and how was it done?

You know what? I still use a 50 mhz cordless phone, because the new phones
have all those stupid menues that aren't accessable for the blind. I have
been replacing the batteries on theese old phones for years.
