Scott,

security is not my concern; see my previous....

As BD... has so rightly pointed out there is, within the UK, no commercial (or legal or statutory) need for that data to be provided for such dissemination. Also, as you imply, any person wishing can have access using a scanner and can, if they are of a mind to, construct a fairly good representation of what they hear.

Hence my scepticism as to why any further promulgation should be required.

Regards

PS
and yes, I get crank calls lol... (infinite mobile-phones and monkeys spring to mind ;-))

EDIT: cos the word 'infinite' does my head in every time lol
