Additional Information
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).
This scanner is designed to prevent reception of
illegal transmissions, in compliance with the law
which requires that scanners be manufactured
in such a way as to not be easily modifiable to
pick up those transmissions. Do not open your
scanner’s case to make any modifications that
could allow it to pick up transmissions that are
not legal to listen to. Doing so could subject you
to legal penalties.
In some areas, mobile use of this scanner is
unlawful or requires a permit. Check the laws
in your area. We encourage responsible, legal
scanner use.
Care
Your scanner is not waterproof. Do not expose it
to rain, moisture, or extreme high humidity. If the
scanner gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use
