SCANNING LEGALLY
Scanning is a fun and interesting hobby. You can hear
police and fire departments, ambulance services, gov-
ernment agencies, private companies, amateur radio
services, aircraft, and military operations. It is legal to lis-
ten to almost every transmission your scanner can re-
ceive. However, there are some electronic and wire
communications that are illegal to intentionally intercept.
These include:
telephone conversations (cellular, cordless, or other
private means of telephone signal transmission)
pager transmissions
scrambled or encrypted transmissions
According to the Federal Electronic Communications Pri-
vacy Act (ECPA), as amended, you could be fined and
possibly imprisoned for intentionally listening to, using,
or disclosing the contents of such a transmission unless
you have the consent of a party to the communication
(unless such activity is otherwise illegal). These laws
change from time to time and there might be state or lo-
cal laws that also affect legal scanner usage.
