Some try to develop scenarios that justify enabling transmit capability for Public Safety frequencies.
An intruder on law enforcement frequencies may be ignored as a false distress call as they begin intruder procedures. As noted before, law enforcement is quite territorial about their communications channel. In Michigan you will not be treated well if your vehicle can transmit on their channel. I witnessed one ham who was pulled over when he was transmitting on amateur radio and the nearby patrol car's scanner had front-end overload. Fortunately, he was able to avoid citations and impound, but was delayed substantially. What will you say when an law enforcement person looks in your vehicle and says, "What's that radio? Does it receive or transmit on police frequencies?" Mike - AA8K Richard Fletcher wrote: > > > J. C. and the rest. > > Yes I am going to say this because it seems to have been missed.
