Scanning Legally
Your scanner covers frequencies used by many
different groups including police and fire departments,
ambulance services, government agencies, private
companies, amateur radio services, military
operations, pager services, and wireline (telephone
and telegraph) service providers. It is legal to listen to
almost every transmission your scanner can receive.
However, there are some transmissions you should
never intentionally listen to.
These include:
• Telephone conversations (cellular, cordless,
or other private means of telephone signal
transmission)
• Pager transmissions
• Any scrambled or encrypted transmissions
According to the Electronic Communications Privacy
Act (ECPA), as amended, you are subject to fines and
possible imprisonment for intentionally listening to,
using, or divulging the contents of such a transmission
unless you have the consent of a party to the
communication (unless such activity is otherwise illegal).
