| | | ^ its not commonly used, it was (dont know if it is any more, this is just stuff I heard from old timers) used to hunt down spies listening to number stations, and sometimes in war to detect the other sides RX set . most facilities dont have the equipment period to do it, its very rare, and anything else you have will make more noise on the RF recce then a local ossilisator. the IR i'd be more concered about. just troops on field training portion of course might see you and call into the MP's.

| What does this have to do with Big Dave following the local PD and newspaper reporters? Wasn't aware that there were PD and newspaper reporters hanging out with troops during field training, with possible MP's following their every move. Although it may be possible to have two scanners on hand. One to monitor the MP's, which may be blocked with digital coding, and the other to monitor the PD/newspaper guys. However, you'd need two earpieces to monitor both, which leaves you screwed if a troop member or someone else tries to sneak up on you. But you could scan all the freqs which proves to be adequate enough, but might miss out on secret info that the MP's are sending. Then again, if you have a buddy who's monitoring the PD and newspaper people, and then you monitor the MP's traffic, that could work as well. But the chance of having a buddy with you in the field during training or even with you in the city is usually slim, unless you have him join you in advance to go over the tactical moves in order to get your best possible reception of these events happening. Then the question remains of why you're wanting to monitor the MP's to begin with or why the PD and newspaper people are in the field with you, or how the hell you got on to the base to begin with when you're not a member or authorized personnel of that base in order to gain access to the field where they're practicing these training exercises. I guess we're screwed then and would have to forget this and go play with payphones or watch some more TV. This way I'm caught up on all the new and advanced military stuff so I could quite possibly defeat this idea, go monitor the freqs with a bud on the field, and pay close attention to those MP's, PD cops, and newspaper crews.

| | | Negative, it isn't illegal. The Radiocommunications Act doesn't specifically prohibit you from listening to stuff. The only things it forbids are divulging what you hear, and making use of what you hear. In english, this means that what you hear, you cannot repeat to others and you can't make use of for personal gain (IE, you hear two people talking about something you could make $$ off of). There's also another section of an act, I can't recall exactly which one right now, that says it is illegal to intercept and make use of any private communication (which is a communication where both the sender and receiver have a reasonable expectation that their communication is private, such as a wire-line phone). So no, it isn't illegal to listen, provided you keep it to yourself and don't try and cash in.
