According to the ECPA, as ammended, it's illegal to listen to cell *and*
cordless phones.
According to other laws, most other types of transmissions are legal to
monitor; for other than broadcast and HAM transmissions, it's illegal to
divulge what you hear. (Note: there are certain other types of transmissions
it's illegal to monitor. For example, studio to transmitter links.)
