Thanks radeng, was just about to post the same correction.
Furthermore having police frequencies in a scanner memory (and most have a memory far too complicated for the user to understand) is regarded as evidence of listening. If you are an upstanding citizen with no previous you might get off with a reprimand and confiscation of your kit. This happened to a contact of mine. If you have been done before then prosecution is automatic.
So if you must listen make sure you know the memory purge procedure for your scanner and practice the drill!!!!
