Scanning Legally
Your scanner covers frequencies used by many
different groups including police and fire departments,
ambulance services, government agencies, private
companies, amateur radio 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 extremely high humidity. If the scanner gets
wet, wipe it dry immediately. Use and store the scanner
only in normal temperature environments. Handle the
scanner carefully; do not drop it. Keep the scanner
away from dust and dirt, and wipe it with a damp cloth
occasionally to keep it looking new.
Service and Repair
If your scanner is not performing as it should, take it to
your local RadioShack store for assistance. To locate
your nearest RadioShack, use the store locator feature
on RadioShack's website (www.radioshack.com), or call
1-800-The Shack (800-843-7422) and follow the menu
options. Modifying or tampering with the scanner's internal
components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate
its warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it.
