The scanner hobbyists and certain radio hobbyist magazines and other 
hobbyist groups did a bit of lobbying, so that listening to police 
scanners and a number of other two-way communications is not 
prohibited.  Listening to cordless phones is under the latest version of 
the law.  Scanners sold in the United States have to be so designed as 
not to receive cellular phone frequencies.
