You have to know someone underground that have some good "crystals" that arent legal. I think some soldering is involved too. It's compared as getting an inspecton sticker without cats, o2's etc.

$11,000 per day if caught guys. Let's play a game! PM me if you are with Vice, FCC or in Law Enforcement or simply type out "PM me Grim!" to verify that you ARE with FCC, Vice or Law Enforcement.

For actual device, I need to catch you in one of the 2920 meetings and get to know you. I have family to support and dont need any more trouble.

Yeah some radio reception act makes it legal for all citizens to accept every kind of radio frequency.

Now that doesn't mean you won't get hassled if a cop finds it in your car.

If an officer finds a scanner in your car, not only will/could he give you a hard time, but that's an illegal device. You might as well have an open can of beer or marijuana in your car. I know there are officers in this forum, you guys wouldnt mind chiming in and giving your 2 cents would you?

I just got a phone call from an Agent with the FCC department asking me to refrain from divulging illegal devices that would ruin the sanctuary of people's 1st amendment and that further communications on this will have me a visit from the online constables. I could pm you guys, but then I would have to kill you .
