I'm somewhat new at this and am not sure if i understand the bottom line:

Is it illegal to listen in on CORDLESS... I know it is for cellular (it s
shouldn't be) but always assumed that it was no problem to do so to 
cordless.

 You might also try looking at the Freq list......i dont think that the 37 has the 800mhz band (or what little of the 800mhz band the 34 has)
  Although this may not be correct...but i do seem to remember hearing about it.,

California.  211 (or PC211 or 211PC) is the California Criminal Code
section for robbery.  Apparently these numbers are used throughout California
for police dispatch.   (The sharp-eyed will note that I'm not in California,
but my books tell me it's true...)

There has been some discussion about cellular phones, but this listing

mobile phones.  My first crack at scanning them was successful.  I listened
in on quite a few interesting QSOs.

I recently flew from Raleigh-Durham, NC to SanDiego, CA, and used a scanner
on the first of the 2 hops.  I was politely told by the stewardess that
radio recievers were not allowed to be used on the aircraft.  I thought about
questioning her, but didn't.  

On my return trip, I decided to ask the ticket agent at the desk if there was
a written rule about radio recievers.  Yes, sure enough, no use of Radio
Recievers, Cellular Phones, or certain types of electronic games.  Portable
computers were OK, but only after takeoff.

I found this very hard to understand, but decided what the heck, I'll ask the
flight-crew... 8-)  Same story.

This was with American Airlines, and so may differ with your carrier.

Sorry for not trimming that down...my editor is doing wierd things:

I worked as a police dispatcher in Texas for a while several years ago.
I don't know why, but "public service" refers to regular telephone
lines.  They just pick up the phone and call like everyone else, usually
to discuss something they'd rather not broadcast.  Or officers might be
passed an "urgent" telephone message this way.  FYI, X-2 in Texas is a common
code for wife/girlfriend, so the phrase "public service your X-2" means
call your wife."  Sounds better the first way, I guess..

Hello, I just bought a Uniden 200XLT handheld scanner from Grove who shipped
along with the unit instructions for restoring the missing cellular freqs,
the instructions also mention that the unit will recieve cellular calls
due to the imaging at +20.6 Mhz without any modifications to the unit.  And
they were correct, the unit picks up tons of calls, so I would like to know
if there is any point in doing the simple modification at all.  Also I would
like to know if the modification to increase the scanning rate is suggested,
and if it works well without damaging the unit why wasn't it designed like that
in the first place?  Thanks very much in advance!

By the way, I can only read this group because I have an account at 
Northwestern.  We don't get the alt hierarchy at work.  Is there any
good reason why there shouldn't be a rec.scanning or rec.radio.scanners?
You would probably get a lot more "pros" if it were so.  It certainly seems
like there is enough traffic here to justify such a group.

Just a thought.

I just received a flyer for the Shinwa Model SR001 scanner and am
hoping someone on the net knows something about it, like if I should
buy it or not!

In a nutshell;
   25 to 999.995 Mhz, AM FM wide and FM narrow
   2 antenna inputs, selection programmable by channel
   200 channels, scans 35 channels/sec
   Infrared remote control
   RS232C interface

Most important to me are the freq. range and the RS232 interface.
There is also a lot of "receiver specification" mumbo-jumbo that
I do not understand but will post upon request.
I was told the cost is a little under $400 but will get the exact
number.

Any opinions will be greatfully accepted.
Thanks,
John

yes, use of numerical codes is quite wide spread here in California -
since most movies and TV shows are made out here, they use the 3 digit
codes referring to sections from the California Penal Code. Some
jurisdictions use 9xx codes also, which don't refer to the penal code.
For public reference, here's the most common 3 digit codes:

187 - murder
207 - kidnapping
211 - armed robbery
240 - assault
242 - battery
245 - assault with a deadly weapon (ADW)
261 - rape
390 - drunk
415 - disturbing the peace (i.e. fistfights, etc.)
417 - person with a gun or knife
459 - burglary
502 - drunk driving (an insurance company out here used to have a jingle
      with someone singing, "got too many tickets and a 502, don't know

I pick up alot of car phone transmissions on my scanner.
And the number of frequencies keeps growing every week. Do
cellular phone companies inform its users when they
install the service that the the customers will be
using public airwaves and that their conversations can be
heard by thousands of people out there?

NO! CORDLESS IS OK.  In fact you CAN listen to the cellular freqs if
no one is using it at the time (static) or you can listen to cell calls
if you are checking for interference.

 Does anyone know of any scanners around $300.00 that have complete coverage
from like 0-800 Mhz? it would be nice to have a scanner (portable) that cover
FM & CB.
