Well the BCT 12 I was looking at is not available anymore and I cannot find it anywhere online....anyone know where I can get it??

They sell the BCT-8 anywhere...gors for about 160 on ebay new...I would prefer the discontinued BCT-12 model since its just the size of a V1. I want to discreetly install the scanner. One more question....is it even legal? I read around and state that its illegal in some states and for MA its "no known laws regarding the use" of scanners. Does it mean i'm good to go??

I am no expert on scanner legality. But, here's are my best quesses/takes. It is illegal to use scanners to do some things in all states--at least to monitor cell phone calls and perhaps wireless home phone calls. But, one of the main purposes of scanners is to monitor fire and police. I think scanners probably are legal for these purposes, and more, in all states. And, given this observation, I don't think a state would make an unenforceable law stipulating that one cannot use a scanner to keep from being caught speeding. I think that such a law would be unenforceable because it seldomly, if ever, would be possible to prove what a scanner was being used for. But, if a state did make such a law, then I don't see how you could ever be prosecuted.

Law Enforcement Officer! Keep up the good work.
