I'm sure if something happens and you are fined, and/or your scanner is confiscated that pinellas fire will pay the fine and buy you a new scanner.pinellasfirefighter said:you wont have any problems trust me. unless you are riding around in a unmarked type police cars with lights and such.
Not the case here in South Florida. I know of officers that will act on it if you don't have a ham license. It all depends on where you are (and if they have calls holding).pinellasfirefighter said:they said its about like the seat belt law. they will never charge you with it unless you are giving them a hassle or using it for a crime.
LOL...you're reading too much into it. I never ran into any cop.pinellasfirefighter said:hmmm.. well sorry you ran into a cop having a bad day.
