Radio Scanners

[Burnsy2023]

Firstly, is it completely legal to monitor police frequencies? And if so, how much would a reasonable budget scanner cost to do this?

Not for anything illegal mind, just find it facinating to listen to traffic police etc.

I seem to be reading conflicting reports on the legality

Yeah just read this:

Yes you can listen to the tetra police radios, you have two ways to do this.
1) join the police force.

2) spend about the same as a third world countrys debt on buying the type of equipment used at GCHQ.

Oh well, that scupperrs that idea then.
