Re: Re:800 thru 900 scanner mods???
What area do you plan on listening to cell phones? Most of the country went digital and the rest will soon follow. There is no handheld scanner that can decode all of the various modes of digital phones.
In the 800 Mhz region there will be 2 carriers plus Nextel. The other 6 licenses for wireless phones are in the 1900 MHZ spectrum and are definitely digital.
Like I mentioned, all major cities are digital. There are still some highways that are covered by analog in the 800 Mhz range but not sure what your wanting to hear.
There used to be only 2 wireless phone systems in each area. Now there are up to 9 service providers in each area. You’ll even find some private repeater systems that will emulate cell phones. They are on VHF, UHF and 900 Mhz.
