Radio Scanner

Hmmm. I am wondering if packing my radio frequency scanner is a good idea. It will pick up everything except the newer digital e-com systems.

It occurred to me they be in a legal grey area - their capabilities considered.

Wouldn't want that. Should I pack it or use the sledgehammer on this fine instrument that has served me well over the years...................

Ahhh, to pack or not to pack, dat be de question.

Then there are our family two way radios - useful when we go separate ways up here. Could look weird (or worse) there.

What thinks ye knowers of the stuff I do not.

Thanks,

woody

Shouldn't be a problem unless you are moving to North Korea or something...

Nowadays they have this thing called craigslist, usually works better than a sledgehammer.

Or just let me come pick it up. :)

I know Mexico was touchy about scanners in the 1977-82 range. Thanks. It's funny - or maybe not - but things like Craigslist or ebay for that matter never crossed my mind....................
