<font color=blue>"Since I am an amateur radio operator (KE3VB), I may just go ahead and purchase a mobile VHF/UHF transceiver that has extended scanning capabilities. But your suggestion for a CB unit is also good, esp. since they are cheap, and there are such long stretches of dead air, which I had not fully considered."</font color=blue>
In most states that restrict use of scanners in vehicles, an exemption is made of licensed amateurs. Besides unless they took the time to go through all your memory channels they'd have no clue.
