It's amazing how stuff can be happening right in your own neighborhood and you'd have no idea! I want to get one of those hand-held scanners now. :P

The one I linked wasn't a scanner.  It was a real radio (that you need a license to own legally in Canada!)

This could actually be very useful if you use it wisely. Shame on those of you who are making fun of this, you don't quite understand the possibilities this has. :p

Sadly, its illegal to use a scanner in the commission of a crime.

But otherwise its generally legal, or exceptions are made for Amateur radio operators in states where it is illegal(New York comes to mind, and Michigan as well I believe for two examples).

Very cool... Maybe I could do some vigilante action :D
Vigilantism is a program operated by many police systems throughout the US.  Try going to a station and asking about it.

$150 for that?  If you had your HAM license you could get a REAL radio for about that.  :P

Because he had a useful and relevant response to it. There's nothing wrong with resurrecting a thread under those conditions, the issue is when somebody resurrects a thread with "lol!" or something.

Half of these "live feeds" are just like chat rooms and shit if they make public announcements, they aren't the real feed..

Oh no, I agree. I went and listened to it too :P. I just had to post something about the fact that he posted 2 years after the thread died.
