Huh? IL is the country code for Israel. The system is listed correctly.

IL is the two-letter country abbreviation for Israel.

My mistake thanks

There must be a way to modify the US version
do you know if it's hardware or software blocked ?

Both per FCC mandate.

FCC should look into their regulations as there no longer are any analog cellular systems in use and there are only digital ones that cannot be monitored. That would make receivers more globally universal and manufactures doesn't need to pour epoxy on the circuit board that makes it impossible to replace a $.05 component that have been damaged in a nearby lightning strike. Manufacturing costs would be less if there where no need to block frequencies and skip that epoxy process.

The regulation have no logic as it is still allowed to monitor ambulance and police communications where they share personal info about people that have jail time and convictions from drug abuse and all sorts of sensitive information.

As long as their is a phone operating on those frequencies, regardless of mode, congress will never allow it. The law was a result of politicians being eavesdropped on and they will never allow it to be repealed.

Ed summarized it pretty well. It's like trying to get a tax repealed - almost impossible.

BTW, I made the same point in many years past. ECPA hardware restrictions are outdated, as are the firmware restrictions (band block).
