You're just being silly. Uniden wouldn't design or build the Bluetooth transceiver, so it wouldn't shart all over the bands. Your cheap 12V to 5V adapter? Well of course its chopper circuit is ralphing all over your radio.
Would you classify this guy as "out there"?

The IC-R30 has bluetooth built in. While not technically a "scanner," it is proof that it can be done in a consumer grade receiver.
You are correct. Filtering Bluetooth transmissions in a sub-GHz receiver is really not that difficult. The P25 / P25RX-II both have integrated Bluetooth. There are zero issues with reception of P25, etc.

In the late 80's I went to Kings Island and took my pro 34 in a fannypack and had the earphone cord come out concealed behind and wrapped around a Walkman strapped on my belt and overlapping the edge of the pack. Whenever security would walk by I'd act like I was jammin' to some music.
I just wanted to innocently listen to all the cool stuff and not get hassled over my scanner. I wasn't sure about Ohio's laws or Kings Island's rules at that time and I didn't have to worry 'cause it worked and no one was the wiser. Had a ball!

Years ago, I purchased a Bluetooth transmitter that connects to any standard 1/8 inch headphone jack to simulate a similar setup. I don't have the model I used, but here is something that might work:

It has been mentioned several times, that you can already do this with a Unication scanner/pager. I have done it with my Unication G4.
But posters here still insisting it doesn't exist yet?
Reading is fundamental?

Ok, I'll play along....
Many, many, many years ago I took my Bearcat BC-100 to a Texas Jam (yeah, I'm old) in the Astrodome. About 30 minutes before it started I found myself surrounded by about 6 or 7 security people. They asked what it was, I explained what it was and they were surprised I got through the security screening with it. But this was the early 80's and security was looking for guns and recording equipment and that's about it. They left me alone after that.

Thank you for playing, @KevinC!
Was it something like this? I love this little guy (Made by Avantree), it can play both sides of the fence and lasts a fair while. USB Drive for reference.
A Unication pager isn't really a scanner, though.

Sure it is! I don't know why you would say that.
That's what I am using it for. And many others are too.
You can use a screwdriver as a chisel, but that still doesn't make it a chisel.

On the internet...
some people will argue about anything.
I guess they have nothing better to do.

Surveillance scanners exist. Good luck getting access to one of the catalogs that sell that kind of stuff though. I've never seen any in the commercial market, and I am old enough to remember what a 'dribble antenna' is lol
Far as interference, nothing, not even cheap LED lighting will ever be any worse than Nextel was. Wow that got into everything
