LA protestors carrying apx6000s

There is some self proclaimed media on social media with printed media badge tags who use regular scanners. Id imagine some protestors were using them as well.

Doesn't Lapd have Encrypted Tac channels for such events ? Or Special event channels ? It's Bonkers to think a bunch of ... protesters would have the Tech to circumvent law enforcement !

I stand corrected. Thanks. I didn't know they could be modded that far out of the 70cm band.

Here are all the frequencies in a text document in ascending order with 47 duplicates removed in case anyone wants to use a copy/paste into Proscan or whatever.
The 500 MHz frequencies some scanners may not cover. So edit accordingly. There are only three. Well, my P2's cover up to 512 MHz. My AOR AR8000 coves that range plus some. There is one 519 MHz in the list.

Getting a little off topic here fellas... So what is LAPD planning to do with these people?

That would be a question for the LAPD. But, as long as the radios are receive only on their freqs, I don't think there is much they can do with these people as far as that is concerned.

Don't say that too loudly, you'll upset the "when all else fails" hammies that have public safety frequencies programmed "Just in case".
Actually, the radios could be configured for transmit as well. As long as the radio doesn't transmit, no crime has been committed. I suppose a clever prosecutor could attempt to prove intent by showing the radios were configured for xmit, but that would open up a lot of ancillary issues involving equipment search and prosecutorial authority since communication law is the sole prevue of the Feds.
It's a bit like having a vehicle that can cruise at 100+ MPH. As long as the driver adheres to the speed limit, there's no crime.

The FCC would disagree with you on that:
§ 90.427 Precautions against unauthorized operation.
(b) Except for frequencies used in accordance with § 90.417, no person shall program into a transmitter frequencies for which the licensee using the transmitter is not authorized.
Doesn't say anything about transmitting, it says "no person shall program".
Funny thing is, that applies to everyone, other public safety agencies and {gasp!} ham radio operators.
So do mine.
Even better with my big wide-band Nagoya. I have the black one. There is a new California Compliant Nagoya in safety orange.
