| Connecticut- no scanner laws, no radar detector law Federal Regs- radar detectors are illegal, no Federal law on scanners being illegal. |

| hypocritical. the police are allowed to use cell phone conversations as evidence against you for any reason because when you transmit on airwaves it has been determined that you cannot expect privacy. so if we listen to signals sent into the air it is illegal. see the problem there? |

| Not saying it's illegal, or legal. But... I've never had a problem with any state. Of course, I don't go around wearing a sign or waving a flag either. I've done all the lower 48 and parts of Canada. My scanner as always been mounted in full view, for all to see. Unless I was in my car, then it's mounted in a console cubby hole. Used mobile scanner for over 20 years... I don't have a license of any kind. Unless you count my expired "general" I had when working as a professional broadcaster....long time ago.

| Nothing I can add to this post that hasn't been said already. But a word of warning. There is always a risk with having a scanner in a vehicle with/without a HAM radio license. Sadly, innocent until proven guilty isn't normally the case in these matters. A cop can sieze your scanner, and write you a ticket even if you have a HAM license. It will become your responsility to know your rights and to fight the ticket, which would require time you probably don't have. The other part of this is most States have different rules regarding scanners. Some allow, some don't, some do with restrictions and exemptions, again it will be your responsibility to know the law in the state you're in. |
