 -> It's supposed to be illegal to listen to cellphone frequecies,
 -> but legal to listen to the 40-50 MHz area (cordless). And then
 -> there are all these people who are bugging their own homes
 -> with ultra sensitive baby monitor microphones, broadcasting
 -> the sounds from in their house on the 49 MHz area.

Once the phone conversation leaves wireline and cell 
frequencies then it is no longer illegal to listen to it, 
no matter how much YOU or I might object to it. 
From the accounts I've read, the courts decided that it's NOT 
illegal to listen to the radio traffic in the 46 to 49 MHz 
band. If you don't want to be listened to you don't use 
cordless phones. It is illegal, as you say to use that info. 
Lot's of users of cordless phones WISH it were illegal, 
apparently you're included on that list. Same goes for the 
900 MHz cordless phone area. If you're not using a phone 
that is digital or/and encrypted, then don't say anything 
you don't want heard, cause no telling who's listening.
