Hola.

Me gustaria saber si alguien tiene informacion respecto al uso legal de escaners en Mexico, asi como de su importacion desde E.U. o Europa. Ya indague en E.U. y no hay problema para exportarlo si esta en su caja original y es nuevo, pero no me garantizaron que aduana u otros lo dejaran pasar por motivos de articulo no importable o prohibido. Agradeceria sus comentarios.

[ I'd like to hear if anybody has information about the legal use of scanners in Mexico, as well as importing them from USA or Europe. I already asked to some US parcel companies and they said that it is not a problem for them as long as the scanner is a brand new one, packed in its original box, but that there is no guarantee that Mexican Customs or Federal Police will allow it to be delivered. They are not sure if a radio scanner is legal in Mexico so they don't guarantee nothing. I'd appreciate your comments]

Roberto.

Yo creo que no hay problema, en Mercado Libre compre 2 scanners (un RS 2032 y un Uniden -OSOGATO 350A) los uso sin ningun problema, ademas tengo un RS PRO-82 de mano, sin problema, con respecto a la importacion, es mejor sacarlo de la caja y meterlo con el resto de las cosas, para no pagar impuestos, pues aunque son electronicos, debido a su naturaleza, te cobran a veces mas de lo que valieron y te dejan pasar (ratas) compre 5 scanners en EBAY y me los traen mis familiares cuando vienen de alla...

I think there´s no problem, in ML i bought 2 scanners (RS 2032 and Uniden -bearcat 350A) I use them with no problems at all, besides I have a handheld RS PRO-82, about bringing it to Mexico, I think it´s better to get it without the box, and mix it with the rest of our stuff, because it is new and it´s nature sometimes they want to get more than you paid for it, I bought 5 scanners on EBAY and my famili brings them when they come to visit...

Depende de a quien le preguntes (y por un agujero en la ley) estan permitos y estan prohibidos.
Yo he pasado (varias veces) un Pro-99 y un Pro-97 por aire y tierra, siempre sin problemas. Yo lo que hago es que lo paso en mi mochila, previamente le borro todos los contenidos y lo dejo en la banda de radioaficionados (y siempre cargo mi licencia o una copia, por si acaso).

Parte del secreto es no responder lo que no te pregunten, puedes decir que es un radio para las carreras de carros o para banda civil algo asi, y no menciones que lo traes si no te preguntan. De igual manera no te aconsejo que lo cargues abiertamente en la calle (yo siempre lo llevo debajo de la camisa y con audifonos).

Depends on who you ask (and because of a loophole in the law) they are allowed and prohibited.
I've taken (several times) a Pro=99 and a Pro-97 by air and land, never with problems. I just take it in my bag, without any frequencies in and in the ham radio band (and always carry my license)

Part of the secret is to not answer what you are not asked, you can say it's for car races or CB, and do not say you have it unless they ask you. I advise against carrying it openly in the street (I always have it under my shirt and with headphones)/.
