Oh boy... it's only illegal if one listens to the cell frequencies. Who's to
say that anyone will actually listen to the expanded frequencies? That's
assuming the the scanner was manufactured before the ban. If it was made
after the ban, it's illegal to modify a scanner to pick up cell freqs, at
least here in the US.



Might be unmodified but made for a foreign market (not all countries have
laws like the U.S.). But why anyone would try to sell one in the U.S. is
beyond me.
