    So let me get this straight, you turned that thing on and you could get the chatter in radio from the police and emergency services? Isn't that or was illegal? :O

    It's legal. As long as you know the frequencies, you can receive cops/ambulance/airplanes...even NASA.
    The frequencies are published and updated as they change.

    I'm sure there are some things that are coded so you can't hear them, but it's perfectly legal to intercept anything that is transmitted over radio frequencies. It's regulated by the FCC.

    I think you only break the law if you start decoding things...

    Hm, I don't see how or why the cops would let you have the frequency but that sounds pretty awesome, like I said before, it is known that when a cop is killed here the hitmen usually patch into their frequency and make fun of the police department.

    The only thing I can think of that they regulate as far as police communications is you can't have a police scanner in a vehicle while you are driving. I doubt they would want you hearing them call in your license plate, as it gives you a chance to run before they even stop you.

    That's what I was thinking, it would be useful to have one around if you're doing shady things.

    I mean, talking hypotetically.

    Well, I'm pretty sure if someone was planning to rob a bank, they are going to have a portable police scanner with them
    They make them small enough to put in your pocket these days.

    I really should have remembered that Tan time is some unreasonable hour that just happens to exist because the state of Alabama hates black people.

    Or that he said his time and not my godlike hour, because now I feel stupid. But well rested! at 2 AM.

    FML.

    Did he ask to play with you at Cross Burning o'clock?

    It's that magical hour where they burn crosses.
