Just wondering , but if and i know it is unlawful
to have a scanner or radio capable of monitoring in on police
communication..that is what Sec 37 sates, but now there is the internet
.. if one was drive around with a sat. card in the laptop or
other means of internet and audio.. and we listening to streaming audio like
the policescan.us where would that fall into..under the Sec 37
Hey if you do listen make sure you have that
instant CLEAR reset button at hand.. J/K

Hi
Russ,
Be
Careful driving in New York with a scanner. Sec 397 of the V+T Law makes it
a misdemeanor to have a radio in your car capable of receiving police
transmissions unless you are law enforcement or have a permit. There is a
vague clause in the section that was probably intended to exclude hams but
it is poorly worded. I would hate to see your trip ruined by an over zealous
officer.

Hello All,
My lovely bride and I are takeing a week and going up to Canada for a
week next month. What my question is. I want to plug in the police into my
scanner to listen on the way up. Does any of you from the north know what
frequensya the state police use in New York state?
I we are going across the lower teir and I belive it is I-390 north
to the NY thruway west to Bufalo NY then over in to Canada. Then does any
one know any local frequecy in Nigra Canada? Some some thing to monitor
while I drive <smile> Also any repeaters along the way? I have all
the PA, and south stuff ready to dump from my computer to the
Bearcat.
Any good GMRS open repeaters along the way? (In the US)
Thank you ahead of time for the help!
Very best of 73,
