Your scanner covers frequencies used by many different
groups including police and fire departments, ambulance
services, government agencies, private companies,
amateur radio services, military operations, pager services,
and wireline (telephone and telegraph) service providers. It
is legal to listen to almost every transmission your scanner
can receive. However, there are some transmissions you
should never intentionally listen to. These include:
Telephone conversations (cellular, cordless, or other
private means of telephone signal transmission)
Pager transmissions
Any scrambled or encrypted transmissions
According to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act
(ECPA), you are subject to fines and possible imprisonment
for intentionally listening to, using, or divulging the contents
of such a transmission unless you have the consent of a
party to the communication (unless such activity is
otherwise illegal).
This scanner has been designed to prevent reception of
illegal transmissions. This is done to comply with the legal
requirement that scanners be manufactured so as to not be
easily modifiable to pick up those transmissions. Do not
open your scanner's case to make any modifications that
could allow it to pick up transmissions that are illegal to
monitor. Doing so could subject you to legal penalties.
We encourage responsible, legal scanner use.
Mobile use of this scanner is unlawful or requires a permit in
some areas. Check the laws in your area.

You can power the scanner using the supplied 12V, 300 mA
AC adapter. To power the scanner using an AC adapter,
insert the AC adapter’s barrel plug into the scanner's
DC 12V

You must use a
Class 2 power
source that supplies
12V DC and delivers
at least 300 mA. Its center tip
must be set to positive and its
plug must fit the scanner's DC
12V jack. Using an adapter that
does not meet these
specifications could damage
the scanner or the adapter.
Always connect the AC adapter
to the scanner before you
connect it to AC power. When
you finish, disconnect the
adapter from AC power before
you disconnect it from the
scanner.
